Désemparé, angoissé, mais bien décidé à triompher, Billy Chapel aborde un tournant de sa vie privée et professionnelle. Lanceur vedette des Tigres de Détroit, il a été pendant vingt ans le pilier et l'âme de cette brillante équipe de base-ball où il a connu la gloire et les honneurs réservés réservés aux plus grands sportifs. Mais après avoir donné tout son temps et toute son énergie au sport, Billy se voit transféré par les propriétaires de son équipe - échangé comme une vulgaire marchandise - sans avoir son mot à dire. A cette cuisante humiliation s'ajoute un drame personnel encore plus imprévu et plus douloureux : Jane, sa compagne qu'il aime plus que tout au monde, s'apprête à le quitter.

Ren Mihashi was the ace of his middle school's baseball team, but due to his poor pitching, they could never win. Constant losses eventually lead to his teammates bullying him and reached the point where his teammates no longer tried to win, causing Mihashi to graduate with little self-esteem. As a result, Mihashi decides to go to a high school in a different prefecture where he has no intention of playing baseball. Unfortunately, upon his arrival at Nishiura High, he is dragged into joining their new team as the starting pitcher. Although unwilling at first, Mihashi realizes that this is a place where he will be accepted for who he is; with help from the catcher Takaya Abe, he starts to have more confidence in his own abilities. Abe, seeing the potential in Mihashi, makes it a goal to help him become a pitcher worthy of being called an ace.
