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.
Up until then, the team had been strong.
Our daughter, Izumi, played for them too.
.كان الفريق قويًّا حتّى ذلك الحين. كانت تلعب ابنتنا إيزومي معهم
Bis dahin waren sie recht stark
und unsere Izumi spielte dort auch.
Eran un buen equipo. Izumi jugaba en él.
Eran un buen equipo. Izumi jugaba en él.
Pourtant, l’équipe était réputée,
Izumi en faisait partie.
Fino a quel momento, era una squadra forte.
Anche la nostra Izumi ha giocato lì.
Até então, o time era forte. Izumi,
nossa filha, também tinha jogado lá.
А раньше команда была очень сильной.
Наша Идзуми играла за неё.
