Finished this a day or so back.
Really like Adachi's work but feeling a bit let
down at the conclusion.
Ko and Aoba along with the team achieve Wakaba's
goal. But then Adachi winds the story up as they go home
from the qualifying game. Adachi really captures a baseball
pitching duel. The tension is good as the pitchers and their
teams struggle to score. Indeed with all the complications
of the manga plot the tension is well maintained throughout
the whole 8 volumes of the US release.

I could imagine that as in Touch the action could be
concluded in an animé but I think it has not happened though
the whole manga has been turned into an anime TV series.
The anime series has good reviews.

Enjoy some Adachi today.
