The Truth About Chris.Episode Description:
Chris continues to leave practice early and gives Eijun additional workouts. Eijun believes Chris is slacking off and has given up on making the first string, but what makes him the most mad is when Chris tells him he will never be the ace as long as Furuya is on the team. Rei Takashima reveals she was the one who assigned Eijun to work with Chris because of his knowledge of the game, and when Eijun bad mouths Chris he ticks off Miyuki. Rei ends up taking Eijun to see one of Chris rehab practices and reveals he is the only man Miyuki has never beaten. She later reveals that Chris is recovering from a shoulder injury he caused to worsen by continuing to play while he was hurt. The workouts he assigns Eijun before leaving for the day are to strengthen and protect him. Eijun realizes Chris was trying to make it where he wouldn't get hurt and begs Chris to teach him baseball.
