Thanks to Kandori's incredible grand slam, Fuurin Middle win the semifinals and hastily begin to make preparations for the finals in the afternoon. Daigo helps Nishina with pitching practice as he's the starting pitcher for the finals, while Mutsuko and the others observe the Eihou Academy vs Oobi Middle School game. However, Eihou and Oobi's game takes an unexpected turn and after Daigo is rushed to the stands, a face he sees amidst Oobi Middle's line up rattles him...
Wait, shouldn't it still be your
dad who inspired you to play?
لكن أليس والدك هو من ألهمك باللعب مع ذلك؟
Also nicht dein Vater, was?
¿No debería ser tu padre?
¿No deberías admirar a tu padre?
C’est pas ton père, du coup ?
Aspetta, vuoi dire

Espere, sua inspiração
não devia ser seu pai?
Погоди, а почему не своим отцом?
