Maezono Kenta faces off with Teito and Mukai's 3D strike zone. When he is able to make contact with a couple of outside pitches, Teito decides to try and confuse him by changing it up with n inside pitch. Kenta manages to hit a double, scoring three runs for Seido. All the scouts are shocked to see it is Kenta who gets the hit that seems to turn the game around. For the ninth inning Sawamura is subbed out and Kawakami is brought in. Kawakami gives up a couple of unexpected timely hits, but some calm words from Miyuki changes his pace and determines the final outcome of the game. As the game ends the sun breaks out on to the field, signifying it approves of whom has won and advanced. After the game Ochiai Hiromitsu questions Kataoka on why he made some of the moves he did during the game. He realizes Katoka's coaching style if slowly evolving him and realizes if he doesn't start giving input now, Kataoka may very well not be leaving the team's head coach position.
Eijun a cédé sa place à Kawakami pour la fin du match. Mais Seido est toujours mené au score. Parviendront-ils à battre Teito grâce à la batte de Maezono ?
