During the long break in May, the powerhouse schools travel to different parts of the country to compete in practice games to prepare for the summer tournament. Fujimaki Komadai has traveled to Osaka to play Osaka Kiryu; Inashiro is playing Saiho in Aichi; Yoshinaga from Tokushima is in Kumamoto playing Shogakkan. Seido tides themselves over by playing Yamaga in Saitama, but then it's time for Sawamura to take the mound against Hakuryu, a team that finished in the semi finals of the Invitational.
If you've got anyone who 
can stop us, bring them out!
إذا كان لديكم أي شخص يستطيع إيقافنا فلتخرجونه
Wenn es jemanden gibt,
der uns aufhalten kann,
¡Si hay alguien que pueda detenernos,
que venga aquí!
¡Si hay alguien que pueda detenernos,
que venga ante nosotros!
Si vous croyez que quelqu’un
peut nous stopper, amenez-le-nous !
Se avete qualcuno capace di fermarci,
vi conviene tirarlo fuori!
Se tiver alguém que consiga
nos impedir, manda ver!
Думаете, кто-то сможет
нас одолеть? Так покажите!
