Many rivals gather at the opening ceremony of the Tokyo Qualifiers, and only two schools can make national. Seido's summer to bring glory back to their name begins with a game against Maimon West High School. Seido's starting pitcher is...
He didn't start Kawakami, 
but not because he doesn't trust him.
Er hat Kawakami nicht außen vor gelassen,
 weil er ihm nicht vertraut,
No pone a Kawakami como abridor 
 porque no confíe en él.
No pone a Kawakami desde inicio 
 porque no confíe en él.
S’il l’a mis sur le banc,
Ele não começou usando o Kawakami, 
não por falta de confiança...
