Plot
When they were young, twin brothers Aokaze and Nagiharu Kuzumi promised to play baseball together at Kōshien. In middle school, right-handed Aokaze, the younger brother, blossoms into a top pitching prospect recruited to Hojitsu, while left-handed Nagiharu trails in his shadow. With insight from brilliant catcher Ibuki Hayama, Nagiharu develops a completely different submarine style and follows Ibuki as a battery to a team of "outsiders" at Hinazakura High School rather than Hojitsu.Characters
