Major Vol. 59 — Manga Raw / Buy Official

Kaoru, who has come to America to cheer Goro on, meets a mysterious Japanese girl who claims to be a fan of Sato. Meanwhile, Japan is cornered: to reach the Baseball World Cup knockout round, they cannot afford to lose their final second-round game against the Dominican Republic. But a tournament rule barring three straight days of pitching keeps trump card Goro off the mound. Missing the pillar of their bullpen, Japan has no choice but to entrust its hopes to the rest of the roster. A loophole in the rules, a game that finally springs to life, a rookie arriving late: as the weight of a single match peaks, every swing and every pitch carries the players' hearts.
