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?
The two runs they scored off 
no hits in the first hurt bad.
.النقطتان اللذان سجلّوهما في الشوط الأول أثّرت علينا كثيرًا
Die zwei Gegenpunkte ohne Hits
haben echt wehgetan.
Las dos carreras del principio
nos dolieron.

Les 2 points et l’absence de coup sûr
de la 1re manche nous ont plombés.
Già, anche se i due punti del primo
sono stati un brutto colpo.
Os dois pontos que eles fizeram durante
nossa entrada sem acertos nos ferraram.
Да, обидно, что мы отдали
им два рана без хитов.
