When Daigo plays catch with Hikaru, he once again gets a feeling that they could form a battery.
However, at practice the next weekend, he's shocked to find out that Hikaru has suddenly moved to his mother's hometown in Gunma.
Disappointed in Hikaru for not even saying a word before leaving the Dolphins and transferring schools, Daigo lashes out at Mutsuko when she tries to talk to him.
Daigo refuses Toshiya's special catcher training and holes up in his room.
There, he gets a visitor....
That's why it makes me so happy 
when I get to hear that "paff."
.لهذا السبب أسعد كثيرًا عندما أسمع ذلك الصوت
Darum bin ich immer glücklich,
wenn ich den Ball richtig fange.
Por eso me alegra cuando puedo seguir.
Por eso me alegra cuando puedo seguir.
Alors je suis super contente
quand je ne fais pas tomber la balle.
È per questo che sono davvero felice quando ci riesco.
Por isso, eu fico feliz
quando posso continuar.
И я очень радуюсь,
 когда так и происходит.
