Sawamura take the mound after their offense ended. In this inning he'll face Yakushi top lineup and he may face Todoroki. The first two batter, sawamura face them fearlessly but when it was the third batter turn the atmosphere intensifies. Mishima. One of the core batter in Yakushi, second only after Raichi. He hold on quite a lot and manage to hit sawamura pitch. Sawamura panicked a little bit but when he look back his senpais was serious than ever. They didn't complain and focus on the game and this help sawamura to calm himself. With Miyuki leading they barely manage to held Raichi but it's sufficient because the inning ended with this. When Raichi notice that the game had ended he felt a tug in his heart, Sanada clenched his fist. He can't help his team when they needed him the most, other than his lack of endurance his past injury also play a big part on his performance today. Sanada's calf isn't fully healed so it's practically impossible to pitch the entire inning. Realization and frustration struck sanada down. Now he know what he need to do! Meanwhile seido didn't know that they have give birth to another demon pitcher.
Chris analyze the pitcher's performance and initiate a conversation with the coach.
''Furuya have a rough but not so bad inning, he held quite a lot and live up to our expectations. Tanba, he seems fired than usual and lead the team and sawamura the shocking out of all, he show frustration on the field when there's hit and home run from him but he bounce back after that. So far our pitching squad is on fire. Meanwhile for kawakami, he should be the closing pitcher but seeing sawamura potential bloom on the game.. ''
Chris stop and just give a knowing smile towards the coach.
''Kawakami can pitch next game when I see a suitable situation and for Fujikawa we will first need to know the extent of his injury''
The team pack their equipment and head out.

When Yakushi packed themselves and get ready to board the bus Sanada suddenly exclaimed.
''Don't you think that we need to be better than this?''
''!!''
''HHAHAHAHA! nada-senpai you're the best! I don't know but I feel my heart hurt seeing seido winning the game!''
Other players look at each other and nodded, a creepy smile form on Sanada lip.
''That's right! we should do better than this''
Coach Raizou just let his player be, the more this team doing well then school will pay him more, at the same time Raichi can grow with this team.
