When Daigo plays catch with Hikaru, he once again gets a feeling that they could form a battery.
However, at practice the next weekend, he's shocked to find out that Hikaru has suddenly moved to his mother's hometown in Gunma.
Disappointed in Hikaru for not even saying a word before leaving the Dolphins and transferring schools, Daigo lashes out at Mutsuko when she tries to talk to him.
Daigo refuses Toshiya's special catcher training and holes up in his room.
There, he gets a visitor....
My dream of having you catch 
my pitches didn't come true,
،لم يتحقق حلمي في أن تمسك رمياتي
Du konntest zwar als Catcher
meine Würfe nicht fangen, …
Mi deseo de que atraparas conmigo
no se hizo realidad,
Mi deseo de que atraparas conmigo
no se hizo realidad,
Tu n’as pas pu attraper mon lancer
en tant que receveur,
E anche se il mio sogno 
di averti come ricevitore non si è avverato,
Meu sonho de virar seu
arremessador não se realizou,
Ты так и не стал моим кэтчером, но,
если мы будем и дальше играть,
