In the middle of a hallway, the captain of the Chisin's complains to Harucchi's brother, Tanba-san, that he's blocking traffic. Haruc chi says that he still takes care of his brother, and that he wishes him well on his upcoming examina. The captain says that his shoulder is bothering him, and he'd like to show him how to use it to his advantage. He says that the coach said that he would probably have the captain pitch, but that he never mentioned not letting the captain play. He also says that if the captain doesn't play, it's because the coach has too much control over the game. He asks the captain what he needs to do, and the captain says he'll give him his advice.
