On Saturday, the day between the third and fourth rounds of the Tokyo tournament, Shun completed all his daily training early in the morning. This way, he spent the rest of the day relaxing with his mother and sisters.
Shun made good use of this time to rest his mind, as he had been thinking about baseball all week. If Shoto Junior High kept winning and advancing in the championship, he would spend even more time focused on baseball.
But Shun's rest didn't last long, as he had dinner early and went straight to bed. Shun then spent a long night in the arena, practicing pitching and hitting in the training center.
Sunday morning arrived, bringing with it the day of the fourth round. Shun got up early as usual and, without wasting time, left the house for his morning run.
