Strike Out

Strike Out
If I were scoring a game (in Japanese), what would be the Japanese symbol or letter that would equal 'K' for a strike out? You know where I'm going with this. Hahaha.

You're looking to create 三振 boards. I'm surprised that this is still a questions since sanshin boards have been popular in Major League ball parks since 1995.

Be warned, I sent some guys the above characters to make their sanshin boards when Irabu went over to the Yankees, and we all know how that turned out.

And to answer your original question, 'K' is marked in Japanese scorebooks for strike outs.

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.
