February 22 - March 3 Baseball in Tokyo?

February 22 - March 3 Baseball in Tokyo?
So I gather that when I'm in Tokyo from February 22nd to March 3rd I won't get to see any baseball? Not even high school ball?

A quick browse through the official (in Japanese) pre-season schedule (aka open-sen schedule) shows that you are correct. The first game in the Kanto Area is March 7th at Chiba Marine Stadium, the Marines taking on the Chunichi Dragons.

If you've got a Japan Rail Pass, you can head down to Nagoya on March 1st and/or 2nd for 2:00 pm games via Shinkansen. That's a Wednesday and Thursday, so if you're doing business, it may not be practical. But you can easilly make a single day trip there and back if you have a free day.

Wish I could have been of more help.

Thanks for that. Who will be playing in Nagoya on March 1-2, and will the games be at the Dome? Any idea what tickets cost? Thanks again.

I think March 3rd is when the WBC starts - but that's probably too late.
