John McCranie commented on the review "This probably does sports anime as well as it can be done"
Big Windup is admittedly better as a "baseball" anime, which is to say that it goes much more in-depth with the mechanics of baseball and the games themselves. However as an overall work Cross Game is far superior. The story is better, the characters are deeper and lack the absurd eccentricities of the characters in Big Windup, and it also avoids some of the more annoying anime tropes, such as fan-service, that BW falls right into. It may not be the best "sports anime" but it still beats any other sports anime I've seen, perhaps because the baseball itself is not the primary point, but rather the relations between the characters are.
