Fourteen years after his incredible debut, Hiroto Yanagisawa remains a slugger for the Dragons. However, between injuries and slumps, he has spent much of his time out of the limelight. This year, during the off-season, he received notice that his contract would not be renewed. Still wanting to play baseball, Hiroto decided to participate in a tryout with his junior colleague. Just then, Hiroto received a surprising call—from Seiichiro Sakurada, the CEO of Inning Nine Group—inviting him to help employees who are struggling at the company, like a batter bunting to help the runners advance to the next base. Will Hiroto be able to shine in his new role as a “buntman”?
