Bunts, stealing bases, and other tricks define the Nijigaoka Beatles' playstyle, also known as small ball.
The Dolphins lose 2 points from the get go as their opponents exploit the weak bond between Urabe and Daigo, as it's their first time being a battery.
On top of that, the Beatles' ace player Tamaki throws ultra slow balls, which make hits hard, but even when a hit is made, their defense easily takes care of that.
Daigo puts his brain into overdrive trying to somehow figure out some pattern in their defense lineup, but will he find anything?
I've gotta keep trying to pick him off 
and delay his start as much as possible.
.سأوصل محاولة إخراجه وتأخير بدايته قدر الإمكان
Ich muss ihn hinten binden,
Tengo que hacerlo regresar
y detener su inicio cuanto pueda.
Tengo que hacerlo volver
y detener su inicio cuanto pueda.
Il ne me reste qu’à insister
et ralentir son départ au maximum.
Devo tenerlo sotto pressione lanciando in base, 
così da rallentarlo il più possibile.
Eu vou continuar tentando pegá-lo fora de
posição e atrasar o início dele o máximo possível.
Нужно как можно дольше
задерживать его пик-оффами.
