Hawaiian Winter League in 2004

Hawaiian Winter League in 2004
Jim Allen writes in the May 23, 2003 Daily Yomiuri [Link] on the anticipated return of the Hawaiian Winter League in 2004. Ichiro Suzuki, Kazuo Matsui, Jason Giambi, Brad Fullmer, Todd Helton, and Terrence Long are some of the alumni of the HWL. Players from the Americas, Japan, Korea, and Taiwan have participated in this league in the past.

The HWL existed from 1993 to 1997 until MLB decided not to subsidize it like the other minor leagues. (I had the pleasure to catch a game in Honolulu in 1996.)

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.
