Satou Hikaru, the transfer student from the United States, is actually the son of Satou Takuya, the eternal friend and Major League teammate of Daigo's father, Goro!
Right away, Hikaru asks Daigo about advice for joining a local baseball team, but being Daigo, being completely off-put by baseball, gives Hikaru a rude answer.
That evening, Daigo's mother, Kaoru, receives a request for help from the Dolphins' manager, Fujii: "We don't have enough players for the practice match this weekend, can we borrow Daigo?"
For Daigo, who's always dreamed of
emulating his father as a player,
بالنسبة لدايغو الذي لطالما حلم أن يكون
،مثل والده كلاعب كرة قاعدة
Für jemanden wie Daigo,
der schon seit jungen Jahren
Para alguien enamorado
de jugadores como su padre,
Para alguien enamorado
de jugadores como su padre,

 per i giocatori di baseball come suo padre,
Para alguém como Daigo, apaixonado
por jogadores como seu pai,
Дайго ведь с раннего детства
 восхищался своим отцом,
