Eijun Sawamura had his heart set on the middle-school national baseball championships. But his team is eliminated thanks to a wild pitch thrown by Eijun himself. He’s planning to go to high school with his teammates and try again next year when he’s scouted by the famous Seido High School Baseball team. When he goes for a campus visit, he finds himself on the receiving end of a baptism by fire! His experience forming a battery with up-and-coming catcher Miyuki rekindles his passion for baseball!!
One more time, I’d like to pitch into that mitt … Eijun Sawamura’s life changed in an instant when he first met catcher Kazuya Miyuki. At fifteen years old, he says his farewells to his friends and goes to the famous baseball high school Seido High. There, he will find prideful players who have put it all on the line for baseball! Seido High has put all their hopes towards winning the Fall Tournament, which will give them a ticket straight to next year's Koshien. But their first round opponent is powerhouse East Division school Teito! The torrential rains interrupt the tense pitcher's duel between Seido's Furuya and Teito's Mukai, but after an extended break, the game resumes… and Teito capitalizes on Furuya's loss of focus to score the first run! Can Seido clear the dark cloud of that mistake away in time to make a comeback victory?!
