After their own semifinal game the nine Seido players watch Inashiro's semifinal against Teito. Narumiya and Mukai both played at Koshien Stadium as first-years, and then received their powerhouse school's ace number as second-years, and they'll both be pitching. Meanwhile, Seido High School is analyzing their game against Ichidai Third High, focusing on Coach Kataoka. Then, Miyuki remembers a certain thought...
Sometimes it was a pain in the neck, though.
لكن كان ذلك مزعجاً في بعض الأحيان
Manchmal nervt er aber damit.
Aunque a veces era molesto.
Aunque a veces era un pesado.
Même s’il trouble parfois
ma tranquillité.
Anche se a volte è un po' una rottura.
Mas às vezes era um pé no saco.
Порой он, конечно, доставлял хлопот.
