The Hornets can't seem to get a break huh? I'm glad that Keane finally stepped up and they might actually start winning, but having Watts' condition really brings me down.

It's always been there in the Major series, but you just gotta love how you see the same movements all over again each episode, transcending even seasons.

I was expecting something was up with Watts. It's starting to come out now.

It amuses me also to see (Roy I notice the most with it) having the same play from the opening and making it in several episodes. ;)

Nice to see someone take control of the team. Finally.
The opposing pitcher hit the wall then crumbled pretty quickly lol.
The news regarding Watts does not look good. That would be a tough one to take if he's unable to pitch down the stretch.

Keene OWNED them all~ kudos to keene~

that's why watts was asking if keene can put all the members of hornets together and be a strong force. can't wait for the next episode.

Another filler ep. This one was better than the last filler ep with Salmons that was awful. They are mismatching stuff that happened in the manga, no clue why they are doing this. They hardly ever do filler.

Yay! Finally there is an injury that will not negatively affect the team that much. Shigeno Goro will get to pitch even more than he does now.

LOL WTF? Is that Umpire serious? Even I, who never played baseball before, know that Goro's pitches are strikes, yet he said that its BALL? >< Pretty tough huh?

Well that ended as expected, but they threw in a bad ump just for kicks. Keene's part was unexpected but makes sense now.

I laughed when someone told Keene hey let's get serious here and Keene said he is always serious. Wasn't intended to be comical but I chuckled. Anyway good episode seems like one problem after another. I really wanted to see Watts shine as well. Let's see what happens

Murdoch the man, preaching back Goro's own words. Now I want to see a side story or series about an umpire, it's nice to see more of their role in the game.

So that's what it was . . . I thought he was going to get traded or something, although in a way that is even worse. Anyways, glad they were able to get out of their funk, although give it another episode or two and they'll fall right back into it, guaranteed.

Fairly good episode, not as exciting as it used to be.
All they need is a good attitude and teamwork to win.

They finally got a win and it seemed like they were on a good path but now Watts is having hip problems, can't they have this team until the end without any injury?

Keene is the friggin man! What leadership and really, nobody on the team can argue with the guy. He never complains, produces, and just tells it like it is. Also, it was hilarious when Keene stated "I am always serious" without trying to be comical about it.

Poor Watts!

finally the manager silenced that owner, deserves him.

not only the team isn't heypered up but also an umpire that strict about the strike zone?

the fact that keane gonna lead the team is expected, but for murdoch to pump up the team?

there's really low writing here, but as i realized, those two episodes were filler, except the ending, it seems wats have to retire, hope the team will get it well.

Never thought Keene would be the one to pull the team together and motivate them to play for the title or even Murdoch returning Shigeno's own advice. Stil lthat umpire should get his eyes checked for calling those obvious strikes flying over the homebase a ball.
