Do you know how many Giants games get televised during the regular season?

This is perfect for the G-men.
They will never live up to the days when the Midgets ran Pro Yakyu through outright corruption. They can never recapture that past. It's over and done and Pro Yakyu is better for it. Lotte and Nippon Ham win the Japan Series, now that's exciting baseball.
Right now they are only the team the rest of Japan loves to see lose.

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.

Translation/Overview:
Tatsunori Hara, manager of the Yomiuri Giants, has come up with the Giants' 2007 slogan: "奪回" ("Recapture"). The meaning of the new slogan is clear - to recapture the Japan Championship for the first time in 5 years.
There are other meanings to the new slogan. Most significantly is the meaning to recapture the TV audience that has slipped to a single digit in ratings as the Giants have gone a team worst 4 consecutive years without a pennant.
