The morning of the first tournament match for the Fuurin Middle School Baseball team,
Daigo's father Goro talks to his eternal friend, former teammate, and Daigo's coach in his grade school days, Satou Toshiya.
While updating each other, Toshiya brings the conversation to the upcoming Fuurin match.
Goro confidently tells Toshiya that "Daigo can do it", based on Daigo's amazing commitment the past half year,
after unexpectedly becoming captain of the team as a first-year.
But why do I have to build an 
entire team from the ground up?
لكن لمَ عليّ أن أبنيَ فريقًا كاملًا من الصفر؟
Warum muss ich mir das antun,
ein neues Team aufzubauen?
¿Y por qué debo
hacer un equipo de la nada?
¿Y por qué debo
crear un equipo de la nada?
Pourquoi je devrais partir de zéro
pour créer une équipe ?
Ma perché devo faticare per costruire 
un'intera squadra da cima a fondo?
Mas por que eu tenho
que fazer um time do zero?
Зачем мне создавать
 целую команду с нуля?
