Pro Yakyu Live! May 16, 2007
It's the Central League battle for first place between the Yomiuri Giants and Yokohama BayStars. The 'Stars lost the first round of this three game series last night 5-0, being shutout for the first time this season. This will be the first time I get to see former Hawk Tarahara (4-1, 3.05) pitch for the BayStars, as he faces first year rookie Kaneto (3-0, 2.92) for the Giants.

The sun is shining bright with a beautiful blue sky here in Yokohama today. I look forward you you all tuning in for an equally beautiful game under the stars at Yokohama Stadium this evening at 6:00 pm JST [World Clock].

Down by 7 in the 9th, the BayStars made it exciting with a grand slam by Yoshimura with two outs. But that's as far at the BayStars could get, losing 8-5.

Terahara pitched brilliantly through 5 innings, but the Giants finally figured him out in the 6th. (They also found that the ball carried very well to right.)

About

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.
