I wonder if you are in nori's shoes, will you tell your teammates that you might have some injury so that they can prepare/plan something and keep in the back of their mind about you or will you not tell anyone as it might or might not affect team motivation/mentality?
I don't know if sawamura gonna start in sankou's game, if he start it, maybe nori need to be substitute later on, which is bad if nori is really injured. sankou's batter is no joke, and I'm not sure Furuya's condition now can handle sankou,
I hope nori's injury is not bad. or can we see toujou's pitcher debut?

i get it if nori wanna hide it but at the same time if he remember how miyuki hide his injury where it basically ALMOST cause sidou to lose he shouldve being honest now, it is more important than dragging the team down over a pride... and toujou wont be a pitcher when they still have kaneda as the official 1st string pitcher, he might not have sinker like nori but it seems like his forkball is pretty useful

Agree, but miyuki is kinda like needed in the match as he kinda like seido's pillar, but not telling anyone, being reckless and make his injury worsen is not a good thing. He is being irresponsible to himself and team. Good thing is that they didn't lose and opponent didn't realise his injury.
Yup, I forgot kaneda were there as they kinda hype up toujou coming back as pitcher b4, kaneda might have a chance to play if they know about nori, and maybe mangaka gonna throw furuya out there, just to show that he is okay now...

i gave miyuki as an example cuz even okumura/taku in fall tournament keep saying if itsnt cuz miyuki failing of being cleaned up batter, seidou wouldve gained tons of runs which is if we see his past play that statement is true.. the fact that miyuki get handicap, hence why seidou is neck to neck with yakushi.. maybe nori isnt that much important like miyuki is but he still is an important pillar in seidou pitcher lined up.. moreover he is in a position that easily hold whether u lose a run or not.. if he force himself, faking being not injured it wouldve just sink the ship even when lets just say he only play 1 inning... i mean furuya lost 5run in 1 inning alone back in ichidai match, so its not impossibpe for injured pitcher to lost tons of run..
i mean we dont really know bout kaneda aside from practice game so imo this is the best way to introduce him as seidou closing pitcher.. trained him as kawakami successor

Me thinking how cute the older brother is, hoping that he will get his own story,
Well there is: akihabara fall in loveლ(´ڡ`ლ)

Am I the only one who doesn't mind a little bit of sousei back story so that eijun can replace furuya?
Maybe this time we can see if kataoka will replace furuya if he did bad or if he gonna keep using furuya.. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

Well, its not like this time its Furuya who is having a bad day.. He's doing good considering he just recovered.. He didnt give consecutive walks, had hard time locating pitches nor did his pitches lack in speed n power.. The other team is just having a good day.. Besides it will take a bit of time for Miyuki to know what they are targeting and adjust accordingly.. Its seems like this one is gonna be a sitting-on-the-edge-of-my-seat kinda match for sometime atleast.. I too wanna see Eijun in this match but it outs the semi n final matches in slight jeapordy.. lets hope they only take him out if the other team comes on too strong hereafter..

Agree, their opponent really in zone this time and miyuki still haven't get what their are targeting, this game can go in 3 ways:
furuya unable to stop the opponent and batting team aren't able to hit off opponent's ace = sawamura might get a chance, ignite everyone fighting power, do what ace do
.
.
Or
.
Batting team really shine this time and make this game a slug fest with both batting team gaining lots of score. = furuya keep on pitching but we can see how batting team mature.
.
.
Or
Furuya suddenly able to get his engine back on full throttle, like he was before all things went down and this is totally furuya moment = to justify if seido gonna win inashiro this time

Since the game is still in the 6th inning I wont mind if Sawamura pitches for the last few innings and rests for the Sankou game, Furuya cant pitch all 9 innings anyway.... Also, that way we get to see Amahisa vs Furuya revenge game in semis... Lets hope the batters will get used to the pitching and make a few good hits in the next last few innings..ヾ(☆▽☆)
What with this flag?
Everyone is praising sawamura and koushuu too understand sawamura..? What is this? Although I'm so happy baby eijun is being recognize, I'm more scared..especially knowing how sensei treat sawamura..
I wonder what terajima sensei gonna do....
