Spring training is over, and its time for the real fun to start. Mihashis confidence got a huge boost from beating his old school, and now hes more determined than ever to become his teams ace. With Abe calling the pitches, the once shell-shocked hurler feels like he can strike out the world. But things wont be easy for the Nishiura nine in the big summer tournament. They play the defending champs in the first round, and Mihashi comes down with a bad case of fastball envy when he bumps into Abes old pitcher. Playing for fun is fine, but now that the games count its time to win!
