Hanshin Proposes Inter-League Play

Hanshin Proposes Inter-League Play
Hanshin Tigers' President, Katsuyoshi Nozaki, said he proposed inter-league play as an "ulitmate plan" to settle the dispute over the realignment of the proffesional baseball leagues.

Nozaki presented the idea at the executive committee of the NPB held Monday, July 26 in Tokyo as a concession to Pacific League teams that are seeking a one-league system. The idea calls for intesive inter-league play so that each team will have faced the teams from both leagues almost the same number of times at the end of the season.

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.
