Well, clearly it's not the traditional baseball show. The women's baseball team isn't playing against other women in a competitive league, but rather playing against a specific all-male middle school team for the purpose of a personal conflict between the two pitchers. There's not going to really be an analysis of any strategy or pitching patterns. The girls just "practice and get better." There's no battery leading on the specific pitch types of the rival school that they're competing against, and there clearly isn't any sort of tension that you'd expect from a regular sports show.
That was pretty obvious from the synopsis, but it really is just CGDCT + baseball. It's not very interesting. The best thing about this show was at the very beginning of episode 1, where the main character sings a song from a parody of "Marching through Georgia." That was actually funny as hell. And...that's basically the only good part.
There are 10 or so characters on the baseball team, all as bland as the last. There's just a little bit of romance, but just like the theme of baseball, it's shallow and it feels forced.
