Showing the sum total of his pre-tournament training, Sawamura pitches impressively against powerhouse school Kokonoe, holding them to two runs in eight innings. Meanwhile, Ochiai still holds esteem for Furuya who wore the ace number and still continues to improve. Will Seido’s ace for this summer be Sawamura, or Furuya? What will Kataoka decide?
It was Sawamura's pitching that led 
the team while Furuya was recovering.
كان رمي ساوامورا هو الّذي قاد 
.الفريق للأمام بينما كان فورويا يتعافى
Als Furuya eine Formschwäche hatte,
Mientras Furuya pasaba
por una mala racha,
Mientras Furuya pasaba
por una mala racha,
Pendant que Furuya
subissait son coup dur,
È stato Sawamura a guidare la squadra
durante la convalescenza di Furuya.
Foram os arremessos do Sawamura que lideraram
o time enquanto o Furuya se recuperava.
Именно Савамура вёл команду за собой,
 пока Фуруя восстанавливал силы.
