Seido's team has a chance to win the game, but they've been unable to get anything going against Mishima and his "reliable baseball" . Mishima thinks that they should try switching to a different pitcher, since Mishima's "curves" are starting to "wobble" a bit. He also thinks that Mishima is starting to put too much power on his pitches, which will make it harder for Seido to get out of the game. The guys cheer Mishima on, thinking that he's just trying to show them his best, but Mishima doesn't seem to mind. He thinks that if he can win this game, it will show everyone that he is worth something.
