This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.
It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.

That leaves the Seibu Lions and Orix Buffaloes without representation on Pro Yakyu Live yet this season. I'm sure that I'll have the Orix vs. Hiroshima game at Hiroshima Shimin Kyujo in full, while the Yokohama vs. Seibu Game as Seibu Invoice Dome might be on UHF.
So, Orix vs. Hiroshima at 1:30 JST ni kettei!
Please feel free to post your oen messages below. Perhaps some players are reading.
Information on tuning in is in the normal place. If you can and have Skype (free Internet telephony), you can "call in" during the game to "proyakyulive" (without the quotes).
Hope to have you tune in live.
