With only two more girls needed to complete the team, Ryo asks Izumi to join and is greeted with scorn. Later, Ryo catches a girl watching practice but she runs away before she can talk to her. The girl's name is Kanako Mita and her father is the principal of the school. He wants her to leave sports behind and become a doctor and so he's banned her from sports. She turns up again and Ryo takes her to the locker room where the girls find a way to disguise her so she can play. Izumi finds a locket that belongs to her mother with a picture of man in a baseball uniform inside it.
