Attendance
I was wondering if you could give me some stats on attendance for Japanese Baseball League. For example, how much its changed since Nomo has left. Anything would help. Thanks.

Well, you'll want to start with this thread. It has attendance for the last two years. I'll look up what I can when I get home from work this evening (JST).

You didn't mention if you could read Japanese or not. If you can, I'd rather not type it all up and you can go to this page to see attendance records from 1952 through 2000. I already mentioned where to find 2001 above.
If you can't handle Japanese, let me know. I'll turn something out for the time period you're looking for.
By the way, when you're finished with the report/article, send us a URL to read it. It should make for interesting reading. And either magnify or belittle the "Ichiro effect." (Personally, I think social changes have more effect than a few stars heading overseas, but sensationalist newspaper columnists don't seem to share my viewpoint.)

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.
