"The True Ace" "Catcher Duty" "Play!"
Ren Mihashi shows up for the first day of practice at the newly-formed baseball team for Nishiura High School, a small public school in Saitama. Here he meets Coach Momoe and other prospective players, including Yuuichirou Tajima (superstar 4-hole batter and 3rd baseman), Azusa Hanai (upstanding and insecure future captain), and Takaya Abe (catcher). Always believing that he was a no-good pitcher, Ren looks down on himself, but despite this, he continues to want to pitch. With the help of his new teammates, Ren starts his journey towards the ultimate goal for pitchers: becoming a "true ace". After the team spends a week in training camp, they face down their first opponent, and Ren is forced to confront the demons of his past, in the form of his former teammates, the freshman players at Mihoshi Academy in Gunma.
