A manga by Shinobu Kaitani (also the author of Liar Game) One Outs presents itself quite differently from others in its genre. While most sports series are focused on the importance of training, determination and teamwork (more often than not featuring high-school-age players), One Outs is mainly concerned with loads of money and incredible mind games in a pro baseball setting.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Batter Kojima Hiromichi, nearing retirement, is determined to lead his baseball team, the Lycaons, out of the bottom rank of the league. After a trip to a training camp in Okinawa, he stumbles upon a game of "One Outs" - a gambling variant of baseball - where he is defeated by pitcher Tokuchi Toua, who is claimed to have never been beaten. Realizing the missing factor of his team, he makes another wager with Tokuchi, winning and recruiting the latter into the Lycaons.It was adapted into a 25-episode anime series by Madhouse in 2008. The anime was produced by the team responsible for Akagi and Kaiji; the protagonist is voiced by the seiyuu of the eponymous characters from those two series.

Artistic License – Biology: There's no other explanation for how people are able to clearly overhear each other from hundreds of feet away. The announcers can always hear every single word Tokuchi says on the pitch, for example.

Artifact Title: At around two-thirds of the way into the manga Tokuchi ends up sinking Saikawa once and for all after a major rate raise. Once Saikawa was removed the One Outs Contract was no longer in effect thus taking away the main connection the title had to the series. There are still plots to deal with, but none related to One Outs itself.

Accidental Athlete: Kojima discovers Toua Tokuchi largely by chance.

Bad Ass Boast: Toua, yet again. When he says he's going to strike someone out in three pitches, he means it.
