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.
We can't compete, anyway, 
so do we even need one?
لا يمكننا اللعب على أية حال، فهل نحتاج قائدًا أساسًا؟
Wir spielen ja eh keine Spiele.
Da brauchen wir keinen.
¿Necesitamos uno
si no podemos competir?
¿Necesitamos uno
si no podemos competir?
On peut pas disputer de matchs…
C’est pas urgent, si ?
Tanto non possiamo gareggiare,
ce ne serve davvero uno?
Não podemos competir mesmo,
então pra que capitão?
В матчи же всё равно нельзя.
Капитан не нужен.
