Don't lose your head over it.
Ace of Diamond is pretty decent. The main character is the typical shounen super-sincere talented idiot. His raw ability got him scouted, but he knows virtually nothing about baseball because he was just playing for fun with his friends in a terrible team.

I like that, even though it is mainly about the pitchers and catchers, it does not completely ignore the other players. Unlike some other shounen shows, I never felt like I wanted it to hurry up. It does not feel like it drags during the inevitable training camp, and it takes like 20 episodes to get into the beginning of the tournament. Those episodes build the characters and establish the team dynamic.

Yeah it has gotten almost as bad as Bleach filling time with recaps. It is a shame since I thought it was paced pretty well for a sports show before this current game.
