Sawamura begins to follow Chris every where to try and learn more about baseball. He also sits out of some practices so he can learn how the communication of a team works. Chris finally gives in to Eijun's persistence and catches a few of his pitches. After catching them, Chris informs Eijun he must find his specialty if he is to be truly effective as a pitcher. At first Sawamura is confused. he knows his speed isn't the best and he can't throw breaking balls, so what could be his specialty. Eventually Sawamura decides his specialty is his control, but focusing solely on control lowers his speed and allows him to get slaughtered in weekend a game. Can Sawamura figure out what his specialty truly is before being demoted?
Non sans mal, Eijun commence à lancer suivant les conseils de Chris. Quant à Furuya, il gagne peu à peu en notoriété. Ces deux parcours que tout oppose les mènent pourtant au même obstacle : la frustration qu'un lanceur peut ressentir après un match.
