The first pitch of the second game is thrown by a pitcher named Sawamura, who strikes out the opposing team's first batter. After the first batter is out, the other players congratulate the pitcher on his performance. Seeing that his team has lost, the coach and his players go to the mound to try to rally the troops. They are unable to do so, however, because the pitcher's throwing motion is so slow. The other players try to catch up to him, but he is too slow to move the runner.
