Sawamura is nervous being roomed with his older baseball teammates. However, their unexpectedly warm welcome makes him feel right at home. Next day, he feels too much at home, and ends up sleeping in for his first practice! There, he reunites with Miyuki who also overslept. Unfortunately, Miyuki's advice on resolving the situation only makes it worse. The head coach himself tells Sawamura that using him as a player is out of the question. However, recalling the messages from his teammates back home, he declares to the coach, "I came here to become the ace of this team!" So the head coach gives him a challenge.
The coach gave you a chance 
after all your disrespect,
Der Trainer hat dir nach all der Respektlosigkeit
 noch eine Chance gegeben,
El entrenador te dio una oportunidad 
luego de que le faltaras al respeto,
El entrenador te dio una oportunidad 
después de que le faltaras al respeto.
Tu as tenu tête à l’entraîneur 
et il t’a donné une chance.
O treinador te deu uma chance 
depois de todo seu desrespeito...
