I should've asked this in previous chapter, but why did yugami said their team would be done if kadota gets hurt too? is the job of a catcher a vital one? also what would happen if a catcher failed to catch a ball (it slipped, or he missed it completely) ?

@raifive IIRC if the catcher drops the ball or otherwise fails to catch, the batter can run to first base. The catcher can still throw to first base and take out the batter, but it's still a critical error.
Also, you've probably seen it here and in other baseball manga, but catchers work closely with the pitcher as they figure out how to strike-out the batter. You can see Kadota directing Yugami's pitches.

@raifive Other than Nidou, I don't think their team has any other decent catcher so Kadota is vital. Also, according to baseball rules:

6.05 A batter is out when— ... (b) A third strike is legally caught by the catcher...

6.09 The batter becomes a runner when— ... (b) The third strike called by the umpire is not caught, providing (1) first base is unoccupied, or (2) first base is occupied with two out...

In other words, outside these two condition, I'm assuming nothing happens when a catcher fails to catch the ball and they just have a ball guy pick the ball up and throw back.

@raifive the catcher calls the pitches and the pitcher will either agree or not. The catcher has to catch the ball and try to paint it in the strike zone to get the call. A good catcher can sometimes make a ball look like a strike and fool the umpire. If the catcher fails to catch the ball, its live and acts like a hit, the batting team can try to advance and even score.

This was fast, the translations were only posted on /a/ a few hours ago.
Also, god I love Yugami and Chihiro's development. There is more to come from this cat's dish people!
