Taking the mound in the seventh inning against the American Wynd Youth team, Narumiya strikes out their cleanup batter Carlisle, but his last swing is so hard, it goes full circle and hits catcher Inui in the head. Coach Kunitomo decides to switch catchers. As Miyuki dons the catcher’s mask, he and Narumiya form a battery that should be impossible. Meanwhile, Seido is playing Yamamori Academy in a practice game. With Miyuki away, Ono is making impressive gutsy plays, until there’s an accident...
I will not overwork the players in my care 
during this valuable time before the summer.
لن أجهِد اللّاعبين الذين تحت عنايتي أثناء
هذا الوقت الثّمين قبل الصّيف
Ich werde den Spielern vor
dem Sommer nichts aufbürden.
Quello prima dell'estate è un periodo delicato, 
non sovraccaricherò i giocatori che mi sono stati affidati.
Não vou sobrecarregar os jogadores sob meus cuidados
durante esse período precioso antes do verão.
