This surprises me a little. I remember reading that Matsuzaka was having some trouble adjusting to the larger Major League ball in Spring Training. So I'm surprised to see that the Japanese ball is the same size or actually slightly larger.

Not doubting you! It just contradicts what I previously read.

Do MLB and NPB use the same size baseball?
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.
