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.

I would also like to mention that this is not limited to TV. Internet broadcasts (video and/or audio) should also be announced here - with instructions for those who can't read Japanese on how to access the broadcast. (A permanent thread on frequently used sites will eventually host instructions.)
Unlike the other forums, this one will mostly have information that is timely for a short span. Therefore, other than this thread and a thread hosting regularly scheduled broadcasts, posts will be removed after the broadcast dates. If something happens in a game that you'd like to talk about, please do so in one of the other forums as comments under announcements here will be removed regularly.
For timeliness, this forum is currently un-moderated. One wildly off-topic, spam, or inflamitory post here and that privilege will be taken away.
For a given broadcast, please post the following information:
Date
Time (and time zone)
Region
Channel or URL
Description of broadcast (who vs. who, bloopers, etc.)
Concerns about this forum are best posted under this thread.
