(Ch. 6) He's Not That Type

 - Page 120 -

Announcer: An intentional walk?!
	The catcher Noda stays standing...
	Will they avoid a confrontation with clean-up slugger Shimizu?!
	However,
	this is Kunimi, the pitcher who has let up no hits or runs in his 16 2/3 Koshien innings thus far!

 - Page 121 -

Haruka: Did you give them the sign?

Koga: Of course.
	0-0 with two out in the 7th, no runners,
	and the #4 batter at the plate, who's just as good as Tachibana...
	Anyone would give the sign that it's OK to walk him.
	...but,
	I didn't think they'd actually listen to me.

Tsukigata: Percentages aside, it's possible Jin could have hit a home run in his 3rd at-bat.
	But,
	it will be nearly impossible to get any straight hits or runs from Kunimi-kun today, without Jin.

 - Page 124 -

Tsukigata: At this rate, Jin won't get another at-bat until the 9th.
	It's the best way for them to win.

Coach: I'm not calling him dirty,
	but I didn't think he was that type of pitcher.

Tsukigata: He's not that type.
	Otherwise he wouldn't throw those intentional balls so hard.

Ump: Ball
	four!

Crowd: Booo!
	Booo!
	Booo!

Hideo: ...good.

Meiwa Coach: Well,
	I wouldn't call it bad, but...

Hideo: He's focusing on making his team win this game.
	So that he can focus on the showdown in the next...

Announcer: Three outs, that's the inning!
	Senkawa's Kunimi stretches his hitless streak to 17 innings!

Scoreboard: Senkawa
	    Ibasho

Coach: You won't lose, Tsukigata.
	As long as you don't give them any runs.

 - Page 130 -

Hiro: What?

Haruka: You really want to win.

Hiro: Of course I do.

Players: Go,
	Captain!

Haruka: Because it's Hikari-san's birthday?

 - Page 131 -

Hiro: Yeah,
	that's right.
	I've never lost in a game on Hikari's birthday in my life.

Haruka: That's nice to hear.
	Then,
	you'd better not lose.

Hiro: Yeah.

Grandpa: I regret complimenting him.

Mrs. Amamiya: Who?

 - Page 133 -

Grandpa: A no-hitter is meaningless if you dodge the scary batters.

Mrs. Amamiya: It was the coach's order.

Grandpa: Fool of a coach!
	The more of these victory-mad coaches there are, the less drama there is in the Koshien.
	If I was sitting next to him now, I'd clobber him.

Mrs. Amamiya: It would be your 4th entanglement with the police.

Grandpa: Entanglement with the police...

Mr. Shimizu: How long were you on our team, Sho-chan?

 - Page 135 -

Mr. Tsukigata: Until the second time Dad punched the coach.

 - Page 136 -

Mr. Shimizu: Was that the summer of 4th grade?

Mr. Tsukigata: I forgot.
	I don't want to remember.

Mr. Shimizu: Boy, your dad was unlucky.

Mr. Tsukigata: My dad...?
