Ep. 26: Shunshin Yeung dominates early with a home run to secure a lead against Seido.
Aired on April 6, 2014
In the top of the first inning, Shunshin Yeung steps up to the plate and forces Furuya to throw a meat ball, which Yeung hits to left field. This home run gives Akikawa an early 2-0 lead. Capitalizing on this advantage, Yeung takes the mound and begins his precision pitching. He devises a strategy intended to destroy Seido if executed perfectly, but this plan requires him to score one additional run against Furuya. The narrative presented in this segment adapts chapters 75 through 78 of the source material, focusing on these critical early-game exchanges and strategic developments between the opposing pitchers.
