So they did play Kenjou, and of course Touma wasn't allowed to pitch. I don't think anyone was satisfied with that game, since it seems they knew why Touma wasn't pitching. Natsuno did very well, so I'm guessing he'll be allowed to pitch entire games next year, freeing Touma to go all out against the tough teams and not wear himself out.
Touma, baby, is the only one not connected by blood now
I remember the mom at the start was doing a lot to treat him no different than her children with the nicknames and all, I hope they stay together as a family and all, but that mom is pretty young. She might want to remarry some day, and I feel like that's something Adachi would do to add to the mix (pun not intended). But man! Two husbands gone... that's sad.
Thank you for the chapter!
