In the heat of a pivotal middle school baseball match, Eijun Sawamura unleashes a pitch that veers uncontrollably away from its intended target, leaving him with a bitter taste of defeat. Determined to rise above this setback, Eijun and his teammates make a solemn vow—they will conquer the national tournament when they reach high school.

With these exceptional talents merging with an already formidable lineup, the Seidou baseball team sets their sights on capturing the crown of Japanese baseball, bracing themselves to face a legion of formidable adversaries that aim to thwart their ambition.
