!!Tropes:
* BaseballEpisode: The HLB is a series of Quirk-focused baseball games with various Heroes taking the field. This episode deals with the grand finals between the teams of Gang Orca and Shishino.
* BreatherEpisode: With the exception of one small time crook, the entire episode is focused on the fun but intense baseball game.
* DoubleKnockout: Gang Orca and Shishino do this to themselves after delivering their best throw and hit, respectively. With no players left on either team, the game ends in a draw.
* DwindlingParty: Enforced by HLB rules, exactly 9 players are allowed on each team. Unlike regular baseball, there are no extra people to allow substitutes if each person can't continue, meaning the game rolls on even if the sides are uneven, and one remaining player can win for the team by default if need be.
* GroinAttack: Grape Juice uses the his Pop-Off balls from his hair as a makeshift baseball. When Sugarman hits it, it returns to hit him right in the "sugar cubes".
* HistoryRepeats: Mt. Lady is knocked out once again while giant sized, just like in Season 3.
* HonorBeforeReason: When it feels like there aren't many players left, Gang Orca allows the game to be tied in order to settle the game against Shisino with one shot.
* KnowWhenToFoldThem: Tentacole convinces Earphone Jack to take a fall so she doesn't have to worry about getting hurt from the heated battle. She decides it's a good idea and feigns a fainting spell similar to Vine.
* MadnessMantra: Whether it is the anxiety of being social or the pressure of the game, Suneater does ''not'' want to be here. He is reduced to babbling the quote below.
* SlapstickKnowsNoGender: Gang Orca and Shishino end up attacking their teammates, both male and female, for messing up. Only Earphone Jack avoids Orca's wrath because he soon feels they have a chance to win.
* SomethingWeForgot: No one even considers that they have forgotten about Real Steel, whom Shisino piledrived into the ground midgame. Then again, almost everyone are too exhausted after the game to notice.
* ThereAreNoRules: Kind of. According to Present Mic, teams are allowed to use their Quirks however they wish, whether it's using multiple bats, controlling the ball, or even binding an opponent. Everyone is able to switch positions, including the runners, and the game can continue even when players are unable to continue and the teams become smaller. So long as the players don't deliberately attack each other, it's basically ''"anything goes"''.
