Summary[]
Komori is the coach of the Beetles
The Dolphins prepare for their second match against the Nijigaoka Beetles. Urabe scouts their game and finds out that the Beetles' ace, Tamaki, uses an "Eephus" pitch, a very slow ball. Daigo is chosen as the catcher for the match, since Andy injured his leg during the Eagles' match. While training his combination with Daigo, Urabe realizes Sakura's potential, and recommends her to Tashiro, saying she should be a regular fielder. However, as Tashiro makes the tryouts for the fielding positions, Sakura fails the test on purpose, since she doesn't want to "steal" someones place.
