With the intrasquad game over, Kataoka selects those who will be on the first string, causing joy and sorrow among the first-years and the upperclassmen. Meanwhile, Miyuki begins talking about the team at length with Kuramochi in their classroom. Although he says, "Honestly, no amount of time would be enough," Kuramochi says Miyuki still seems to be enjoying himself.
It felt like the inning would never end.
شعرتُ وكأنّ الشوط لن ينتهي أبداً
Das Inning fühlte sich endlos an.
Sentí que la entrada nunca terminaría.
Sentí que la entrada era eterna.
Je me sentais pas du tout
de finir la manche.
Ogni inning sembrava interminabile.
Parecia que a entrada
não ia acabar nunca.
Казалось, что иннинг 
будет длиться вечно.
