Episode Title:
Where I Am.
Episode Description:
Sawamura's arrival causes a slight change of pace in the game. Mukai begins throwing more balls and Seido finally manages to start getting on base more consistently. However the weather continues to hamper Seido, even leading to a bunt failure from Sawamura. Sawamura counters by continuing to pitch to the outside and forcing 1-2-3 innings until the top of the eighth. A double with two outs gives Teito a chance to increase their lead, but Sawamura forces a ground out to first base to end the inning. At the bottom of the eighth Mukai forces the first two batters out before giving up a single to Toujou Hideaki and a double to Kuraomichi. Not wanting to risk a turnaround, Teito walks Haruichi to load the bases and face off against Maezono Kenta who is hitless on the day.
