Jiro Ayasegawa is a fifth-grader who is immensely talented in sports, but finds only misery in his successes—he desperately wants to make friends in sports, but is ostracized by his peers whenever he outperforms them. Seeing a flyer for the Adachi Bambies, an amateur little league team, he decides to try baseball, with the hope that a team sport like baseball means that everyone is on his side. However, the team coach sees his potential as a pitcher and decides to have him try out for the national teams.
