You can find CDs of Japanese baseball music and player themes in most Japanese department stores (Hanshin depaato for Tigers' goods, for example) where they are sometimes lumped together with team videos and other souvenirs. As for the actual lyrics to the player themes (in Japanese or romaji), you may want to do some web-surfing through various fan sites. For example, this "Tora Tora Tora" site [in Japanese] has the Hanshin player themes written down. I have sometimes seen player lyrics written out in fan magazines as well.

On that question, I wonder where one could find the actual sheet music for the player themes. I've tried all over the place in Osaka for Hanshin Tiger themes, but the only tune the stores seem to stock is Rokko Oroshi.
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.

Anyways, I was wondering if you guys know, or know where I could find, the theme music that is played over the loudspeaker for certain players (e.g. Kiyohara, Nioka, Takahashi).
I can't read Japanese and I know this is kind of an obscure question, but any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
