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.

What I am wondering is if I were to actually go on a trip centered around Japanese baseball, which stadiums and their cities are the landmarks worth seeing (like Fenway or Wrigley?). Also, to what significance is the pro team to a city; are the fans just as fervent about their teams like they are here in America or even more so? I can research the back grounds of these teams more, but who are the top three year-in-and-year-out best teams?Thank you.
