Hikaru says he wants to be a pitcher because "it looks fun". Despite his terrible grip and form, his brutally fast balls are something to be reckoned with! After appointing Daigo his training partner, Hikaru casually suggests that the two of them form a battery.
Daigo refuses the idea as impossible, based on his arm being weak. However, his sister Izumi points out that his personality and knowledge of baseball would actually make him a good catcher.
Looks like playing baseball till I made it 
to the majors wasn't totally in vain.
يبدو أنّ لعبي لكرة القاعدة إلى
.أن وصلت للدوري الرئيسي لم يكن هباءً
Ich habe in der Major League gespielt.
No fue en vano haber jugado
hasta llegar a las Ligas Mayores.
No fue en vano haber jugado

Ça a servi à quelque chose
que je joue jusqu’en Ligue majeure.
Allora non è stato del tutto sprecato
 il tempo in cui ho giocato in Major League.
Não foi em vão que joguei
basebol até a liga principal.
Всё-таки, не зря я играл в бейсбол
до тех пор, пока не попал в Главную Лигу.
