In her Junior High years, the pitcher Yomi Takeda was not able to get very far in a cross-school baseball tournament. Since the catcher on her team wasn't at her level, she couldn't use her signature move, the "Magic Throw," and eventually regretted not being able to use it. After Junior High, she decided to stop playing baseball and went to Shin Koshigaya High School, a school without a baseball club. There, she found her long lost childhood friend, Tamaki Yamazaki, who used to play catchball with her when they were kids. Tamaki also played baseball during her Junior High years as a catcher, and could even catch Yomi's "Magic Throw!" Their promise with each other during their childhood could now be fulfilled! Walking together on the road of baseball once again... The story of the girls who love baseball will begin!
Yomi has given up baseball since no one can catch her special throw. But then she reunites with her childhood friend on the very first day of high school.
An actual team begins to take shape when some 1st-years show up to play. But to get a couple upperclassmen to stay will take some special convincing.
The team gets their hopes up when some surprise sluggers join in for practice. With a lineup like this, they all start wondering how far they can actually go.
Despite facing a powerhouse of an opponent, the newly-formed team plays their first practice match and proves these underdogs aren't to be overlooked.
Hoping a training camp will fix some of their problems, the girls learn the hard way that there's no quick fix to becoming a winning team.
The team tries to snag their first win in a practice game by changing up the lineup, but Tamaki doesn't want Yomi throwing her special pitch.
After Rei and Yoshino bring back the results for the tournament bracket, the twins spy on their first opponent and reflect on how they came to love baseball.
Following an embarrassment mishap at the opening ceremony, Shin Koshigaya struggles to score against an opponent who's hoping to end the game quickly.
Yoshino is burdened by guilt when her big plan backfires and gets someone hurt. Does the team have what it takes to change the tide and stay in the tournament?
It's finally time for Yomi to take the mound and show everybody what she's got. Can Shin Koshigaya hold their own or will they get steamrolled by a top-tier team?
A string of bad luck lands Yomi and the team in a tough situation. They'll have to shut down Ryoyukan's power hitters, but can Yomi and Tamaki rise to the challenge?
Yomi and the team take the former champs into the final innings and find out if they can compete with the best of the best.
