While Yayoi, emergency reliever taking over for Chisato, is able to subdue the Oobi batters, Fuurin's counter-offense is also shut down.
The game goes into the final inning with Oobi Middle leading with three runs.
In the all or nothing top of the 7th inning, Fuurin has a real chance with two outs, but first and third loaded!
Top batter Chisato toughs it out until four balls, turning up the pressure on Oobi with two outs and fully loaded bases.
Then, it's Tao's turn, who had been shut down too easily in the previous inning.
and the game turned into
a pitchers' duel between her
وتحولت المباراة إلى تحدي رماة بينها
Gegen sie trat Sawa an,
Se enfrentó a Sawa,
que pidió entrar como relevista.
Se enfrentó a Sawa,
que pidió entrar como relevista.
et à la surprise générale, c’est Sawa
qui a pris le poste de lanceuse.
e la partita si è trasformata in una sfida tra lanciatori
quando Sawa si è inaspettatamente offerta come rilievo.
e o jogo virou um duelo de arremessadoras
Матч превратился в дуэль питчеров,
одним из которых стала Сава.
