Led by a hot-shot young "natural", nine young women defy the male-dominated tradition of Japanese sports, not to create a League of their own, but to take on the boys on their own artificial turf and prove there's nothing a man can do that a woman can't do just as well!

The hallowed stadiums of Japanese baseball become a battlefield as the bats crack, the sweat flies and every hard-earned run becomes another step in the long road-trip to victory! Sizzling sports action and gripping drama intertwine as nine young women come together in the heat of athletic competition to become the Princess Nine!

Ryo Hayakawa is an energetic 15-year old with a talent for baseball. Her father was a skilled pitcher, one who made it to the National Championship at Koushien Stadium. Unfortunately, he passes away only a few years later, leaving only his legacy, his wife, and a daughter with incredible baseball skills behind. Ryo's mother works at the family Oden bar and Ryo helps waitress at night. Ryo wants to do more for her mother, and so she plans to begin working full-time at the Oden Bar after her middle school graduation.

One day, as Ryo is coming home from school, a player from an amateur baseball team drives up in a van and tells her to come quickly! Her team, the Wild Cats, are playing against the Dolphins and are going to lose without her help. Her mother tosses down her baseball glove, and she drives off to relieve the tired Wild Cats pitcher.

She arrives, still clad in her school uniform, and sizes up the situation. The Dolphins are batting, with bases loaded. With 2 outs, the Wild Cats are up by 1 point and only need to strike out one batter to win. After three loopy "warm up" pitches, Ryo proceeds to strike out the Dolphin's batter. This would've been a normal game, except that we see a mysterious woman watching the match.

This mysterious observer is, in fact, the Chairwoman of Kisaragi Girls' High School. As we learn quickly, she plans to create the first girl's baseball team in all of Japan. In addition, she plans to have her team play in Koushien Stadium within three years. Even in modern Japan, a girl's team playing in Koushien stadium is scoffed at and easily discarded. Chairwoman Himuro isn't so easily dissuaded, and begins forming the team after a public news conference...
