It's the third inning of the game, and the yakushi batters are crushing the ichidais. The coach tells the pitcher to keep pace with the batters, but the pitcher refuses to listen. He tells the coach to shut up and not to worry about him, because the coach is not smart enough to know what's going on in the family. He says that the pitcher should keep an eye out for signs of trouble, because if the family runs into trouble, the coach should be able to get out of the way. He also warns the pitcher not to let the batter get away with a hit, because that'll only make the batter more dangerous. The pitch that the coach sees is a dead ball, and he's glad it hits the ground. Miyuki, the catcher, catches it, but Miyuki doesn't know what to do with it, so Miyuki throws it away.
