Yeah, emphasis on the "nicely." It's clear that the "filler" about girls' baseball is written by people who really get
Cross Game and Aoba.
I'm usually not a fan of corporate mucking-about in TV storylines. But if you're going to do it, get it right. Wakasa Seikatsu and SynergySP are getting it right.

It's the second commercial (first one on the right hand side) shown on the company website. I think it is great fun. Aoba visits a live-action school to do pitching practice with the girls' baseball team.

Thanks for that. I've also seen the short segments dealing with individual female ballplayers at the ends of some broadcasts, which also target those viewers Wakasa is trying to reach (young girls).
It's a shame that females will be allowed to play neither baseball
nor softball in the 2012 Olympics.
