Photographers: This way, Kunimi-kun!
	Smile, smile!
	Yes, that's perfect!  Over there, next!

 - Page 7 -

Photographers: Turn this way, Kunimi-kun!
	One more time over here, please!
	Here, Kunimi-kun!
	Right here!

Man: How are you feeling, right now?

Hiro: Slightly dizzy...

 - Page 8 -

People: Kunimi-kun!
	Kyaa!  Kunimi-san!

Kine: Shut up.
	Mindless bimbos.
	You have to develop a better eye for baseball.
	A no-hitter is nothing more than a pretty prize to put on display.
	The obvious source of today's victory was the fleet-footed leadoff batter who got on base four times and scored three runs.
	That handsome centerfielder who skillfully fielded all those potential hits and turned them into outs.
	What's his name?

Voice: Kine-kun!

Kine: Well, at least SOMEBODY knows what they're talking about.

Voice: Pay me back the money you borrowed last month!

Kine: (zzz)

Haruka: Good game.

Hiro: Bet you're happy the charm didn't cause any trouble.

Haruka: Charm?

Hiro: Those caricature charms you made...

Haruka: Ohh.
	Yours I made especially well, so don't show it to anyone else.
	Wait.

 - Page 11 -

Haruka: Oh right,
	I left it in my desk drawer.
	What a relief.
	If we lost, I'd regret it for the rest of my life.

Hiro: Uh-huh.

 - Page 12 -

Shima: Too bad.
	You had your big chance,
	but since you struck out, no one's interested in you.

Ohtake: Shut up.
	I'm not gonna waste my entire summer vacation on this crap.
	I'll pay back my favor to Katchan,
	say goodbye to this stupid team,
	and go to the beach to check out chicks.

Shima: Right.

Players: Happy
	Birthday!
	Here, Tachibana,
	give Coach a beer.

Hideo: Uh.

Hikari: Ah,
	I'll pour it.

Player: Oh right, I'd bet he'd appreciate a pretty girl pouring his beer better than a guy.

Miho: Did someone call for a pretty girl?

Hikari: Ah,
	wait.

 - Page 15 -

Miho: I'm sorry Senpai,
	Amamiya-san wouldn't let go of the bottle.
	Oh no,
	you reek of beer now.

Miho: Shall I help you change your T-shirt?

Hideo: No, I'm quite alrightee-shirt.

Miho: Uh.

Hikari: Oh,
	here you are, Coach.

Coach: Thank you.

Hideo: HA HA HA!

Player: What's up, Tachibana?

Hideo: Laugh, and the world laughs with you.
	What?
	A song?

Hideo: Well,
	if you insist.
	I LOVE
	ROCK'N'ROLL

Hideo: Urrgh.

Coach: Doesn't his family run a liquor store?

Hikari: They're all incredibly susceptible to alcohol.
	Just a whiff of it, and any of them will be dead drunk.
	His father and older brother have to wear masks while they work.

 - Page 19 -

Hideo: Okay, folks!
	One more song!

Hikari: Shush.

Coach: That's a relief.
	I was starting to be afraid he was TOO perfect.

Hikari: Isn't he adorable when his face is red?
	We can leave him here.
	In an hour, he'll be back to normal.

Hideo: (zzz)

Hikari: Now, back to your party.

Coach: Whew.
	What are you doing?

Hideo: Oh, I just don't feel tired.
	Figured if I worked up a sweat, I'd have an easier time getting to sleep.

Coach: Wanna go see the next Senkawa game?
	For when we meet them in the Koshien.
	Good,
	in that case,
	BELCH
	Sorry,
	I drank a bit too much.

Hideo: I LOVE
	ROCK'N'ROLL
