Vicki Kawaguchi

Vicki Kawaguchi, born November fifth and nicknamed Swan, is a character in the Backyard Sports series. Up until 2006, Vicki was known as the ballerina. Vicki has made a small change to her outfit as her leotard is a little brighter and her sleeves are now long. Another exception is that she doesn't wear jeans under her pink tutu. Vicki's personality hasn't been consistent over the years. In earlier times Vicki showed a high interest for ballet and playing sports. She is a good player much like her brother Kenny. Vicki is displayed as a very sweet girl to anyone. Later on, Vicki's personality changed to not being interested in ballet anymore as she showed interest in manga and Japanese culture. She had also drawn her own manga before called Stealth Warriors in the book "Wild Pitch". Vicki also knows strategies on tricking the opposing teams and uses a team's strengths and weaknesses to her advantage. In baseball Vicki lacks power when batting, and has to rely on bunting at worst (and risk bunting out) with her accuracy only hitting one out of six pitches. Her good vision does mean the pitcher has greater risks of throwing Balls, and Vicki has the stamina and speed to quickly reach bases if she hits. On defense, Vicki's coordination (thanks to much ballet nonetheless) is graceful indeed with her perfect catching ability and throwing balls moderately well, even as a pitcher, but outside playing Hard mode her desire to do a little dance on the field can distract her (whereas otherwise all players' Attention are maxed out). Vicki can hit the ball with 25% power and accuracy, and even gains perfect vision. Vicki's ballet classes really keep her reflexes sharp. With the best hands in the neighborhood, she is a good choice to play anywhere in the infield. Vicki's a little kid some big time speed. Hitting is not one of her strong points, but when she gets on base, watch out! In the field, all those years of ballet lessons show.
