With the addition of Ryou, the club now has nine members, so Tsubasa suggests that they play a practice game against another school. The Sato High Baseball Association is newly formed, so they have little chance of winning, but the members are happy to finally have a chance to play. They assign positions, design uniforms, and do everything they can to prepare for their game against a school from the next town over.
To trick the enemy,
you must first trick your allies!
لخداعِ العدوّ، يجب أن تخدع حلفاءك أوّلاً
Um den Feind zu täuschen,
täusche zuerst deine Verbündeten!
Para engañar al enemigo,
primero engañas a tus aliados.
Para engañar al enemigo,
primero engañas a tus aliados.
Il faut s’entraider
pour tromper l’adversaire !
Per fregare l'avversario, bisogna 
prima di tutto fregare i propri compagni!
Para confundir o inimigo,
primeiro confunda seus aliados!
Дабы обмануть противника —
 сначала обмани союзников!
