Help for an English Guy
Hi, I moved to Fukuoka with my Japanese wife and two children from London two years ago. My young son is mad about baseball and we have visited the Fukuoka Dome about 5 times. I intend to get season tickets for next season - so addictive is this sport. But I really need some help.

Where can I get English rules and resources for the Pacific League? Any help would be appreciated.

Lucky for you, there's an entire English-speaking nation across the Pacific that's also crazy about baseball. I believe the rules govening NPB and MLB are virtually identical, so check out: MLB Offical Rules [MLB.com].

Another useful resource for new fans is Stats 101 [MLB.com].

1908: This is off-topic, but I see you're from Chicago. Do you live in the city or the burbs? I'm in the south burbs (Orland Park). Good to see a fellow Illinoisan!

Chris and Torakichi: No problem, you're welcome.- Do you live in the city or the burbs?

I live on the Northside, Satchel.

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.
