Mia

Shioriko

Five!

Kanan

And six! Great, let's kick this practice session off. Thanks for being here today, girls!

Everyone

Of course!

[Fade in/out.]

Mia

Wait, what'd we count off for?

Kanan

Following procedure gets us in the right mindset, you know?

Nico

Uh-huh. Anyway, I look super cute even in a baseball uniform! My talent is truly something else.

Rin

These uniforms are the real deal! Boy, I'm so excited!

Kanan

Let's start things off with a game of catch. Go ahead and split off into pairs with the person next to you.

Mari

I'll be your partner. Let me show you the might of my blazing fastballs.

Nico

Yowch, careful. You're gonna hurt your shoulder unless you warm up first.

Rin

You're gonna be with me, Mia!

Mia

That's fine with me, but just know that I'm not very good at baseball.

Rin

No prob, I got this. I'll teach you loads of stuff!

Kanan

That leaves you and I, Shioriko.

Shioriko

Wonderful. A pleasure to be working with you.

Kanan

Let's start off by standing a small distance apart and throwing the ball back and forth.

Shioriko

All right, let me see… I should place my fingers on the seams, wind up my arm, and throw as I bring it down, no?

Kanan

Yeah, that's right. You're getting it.

Shioriko

Now I concentrate on my arm and wrist…

Kanan

Very good. Do it again just like that.

Shioriko

Why, that's easier than I thought.

Shioriko

Oh no, the ball!

Kanan

Got it!

Shioriko

My apologies, Kanan. I shouldn't have been so cocky after all.

Kanan

Make sure your shoulder and elbows are in line with the direction you're throwing in. Like this.

Shioriko

My shoulder and elbow? Like so?

Kanan

Yeah, that's perfect! Keep it up for a couple more throws, and you'll have it committed to muscle memory.

Shioriko

Will do. You are quite the teacher, Kanan.
