The match between Kaidoh's 2nd string and Seishuu takes place. Kaidoh's ace, Enomoto, is the younger brother of the varsity squad the previous year, and he strikes out Seishuu. Afterwards Kaidoh seems to get easy hits off of Goro, but it's revealed it's all a ploy to give Seishuu some fielding practice. A home run gives Kaidoh an early 2-0 lead, and a few fielding errors push it up to a 4-0 lead. As the match continues Seishuu begins to work more and more as a team and keeps Kaidoh scoreless from innings 3-6. Taiga gets a base hit, and Uchiyama follows it up with a sacrifice to move Taiga to 2nd. Toshiro's base hit advances Taiga to third, allowing Goro to get a sacrifice fly and cut the deficit to 6-2. However in the bottom of the seventh Egashira calls for a pinch hitter. The pinch hitter has been instructed to bunt, but in reality he is to run over Goro's ankle and make it look like an accident. Goro falls for the ploy and goes down hard. The game is cancelled, and Goro is left agonizing in pain on the field.
카이도 2군과 갖게 된 첫 연습경기. 고로는 삼진을 잡지 말라는 야마다 선생의 지시대로 대주고 잡는 피칭을 보여준다.
하지만 엉성한 야수들의 수비는 세이슈의 숨통을 조여오는데…
세이슈는 과연 고로의 원맨팀이 아닌 진정한 팀웍을 갖출 수 있을 것인가.
