Luckily, Fuurin was able to pull ahead with three runs in the first inning of their first regional preliminaries game. However, Itsuki's Yokouchi begins to mix in sliders that he had kept hidden up his sleeve until then, causing one batter after the other to strike out. Mutsuko combines accuracy and breaking balls to keep the Itsuki batters under control as well. Daigo prepares for a low score, close quarter game, and worries that the Fuurin defense might start to crack. Shortly after that, the 3rd-year Tanba on first base makes an unbelievable mistake.
Ever since then, at crunch moments,
my throwing deserts me.
.منذ ذلك الوقت، أفقد قدرتي على الرمي في الأوقات الحاسمة
Seitdem kann ich nicht mehr
gut werfen, wenn es drauf ankommt.
Desde entonces, no puedo
lanzar en una situación difícil.
Desde entonces, no puedo
lanzar en una situación difícil.
Depuis ce jour,
dès que les enjeux sont importants,
Da allora, non riesco a tirare come si deve
nei momenti cruciali della partita.
Desde então, em momentos cruciais,
meu arremesso me deixa na mão.
С тех пор я не могу бросать мяч
в критических ситуациях.
