"We're going to arrive early at the stadium. Our game is the second of the day, the other Tokyo tournament sixth-round game from the other bracket will be before ours. You can watch the game if you want, but starting in the seventh inning, I want everyone in the parking lot to begin warming up. Understood?" - Coach Yamada spoke loudly so all his players could hear. They were standing beside the school baseball field, gathered in front of a bus, just waiting for the signal to board and head to the stadium.
"Yes, Coach!" - The players of Shoto Junior High responded together before noticing the coach's signal and starting to board the bus one by one.
"If I'm not mistaken, Seishin qualified for the other sixth-round game, right?" - The young samurai, Ren, turned to his friends and asked while the younger players got on the bus.
