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.

You can download the game database (for free!) from my website [GeoCities]. Just click on the "Japanese" link at the top.
With a small amount of effort, I could probably create similar season databases for the Japanese 2003-2006 seasons, maybe a 1-day turn-around on each. I have the database and process in place.
Also on the website is an Access database of the 1995-2007 Japanese stats from this website. This Access database has the stats formatted into the same format as the Lahman database of Major League baseball stats. I needed the Japanese baseball stats in this format to load into the Diamond Mind game. Feel free to download this Access database. Unfortunately, I haven't gotten around to adding to this database the pitchers' complete games and some other data I gathered from other websites or from going through the season's box scores.
