   Summary

   What happens when in the finals Eijun throws a dead ball! Hitting a batter straight in the head. After everyone realizes-- Sawamura had the yips. A mental block which stopped him from pitching to the one place he was good at, the inside. This time Eijun receives no support from his team, the title of ace, which was almost in his grasp, was now far out of reach. After a few more games Eijun was taken off of the starting line up, then the first string all together. Now he was just a bench warmer for the second string. Abandoned.
   But one person was there, a friend he'd made as a child in America. Will Sawamura be able to overcome the yips with no support from his team?
