Daigo Shigeno is the first-born son of Goto and Kaoru, He was raised along with his elder sister, Izumi in the states until their father's retirement from the Major Leagues and moved back to Japan. As little Daigo watched his dad make his comeback to the Japan League, he eventually grew to love baseball after watching his winning homerun.

Years later, Daigo joins the Mifune Dolphins to begin his dreams, only to be realized in disappointment that his arms were not fit for baseball, whether its pitching or batting. Daigo trained himself with much effort, only to sulk in depression that he felt too inferior behind his father's shadow.

Daigo quit the Dolphins and lived boringly playing video games and doing nothing until he reached the 6th grade. But it was not long until a new transfer student appeared. The boy introduces himself as Hikaru Sato, the son of his uncle and retired major leaguer, Toshiya Sato. From that fateful encounter, Daigo's baseball life was rejuvenated and rejoined the Dolphins to be the best catcher as he and Hikaru face new rivals and juniors while dealing with his own inferiority complex.
