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.

I know a young Eiji Sawamura dominated a Babe Ruth led US team of All-stars when they toured Japan, but has the difference in standard (if there is one) between Japanese baseball and the Majors been consistent or does it change?
