Bunts, stealing bases, and other tricks define the Nijigaoka Beatles' playstyle, also known as small ball.
The Dolphins lose 2 points from the get go as their opponents exploit the weak bond between Urabe and Daigo, as it's their first time being a battery.
On top of that, the Beatles' ace player Tamaki throws ultra slow balls, which make hits hard, but even when a hit is made, their defense easily takes care of that.
Daigo puts his brain into overdrive trying to somehow figure out some pattern in their defense lineup, but will he find anything?
Without noticing, 
because of my exhaustion,
،بسبب الإرهاق ومن دون أن ألاحظ
Ohne es zu merken,
habe ich aufgrund der Erschöpfung
Sin notarlo, por el cansancio,
solo tomaba la bola sin mover el cuerpo.
Sin notarlo, por el cansancio,
solo cogía la bola sin mover el cuerpo.
mais à cause de cette fatigue,
Senza rendermene conto,
per colpa della stanchezza,
Sem notar, por causa do cansaço,
А я из-за усталости
