Japanese Baseball Tour: Part 1

As you certainly know by now, I’m a big baseball fan.  As of this writing, I’ve been to 21 of the 30 current MLB ballparks (and 3 that have been torn down).  I wrote about my 2024 Midwest road trip here and here.  When I received my assignment to Japan, I was immediately excited to check out the baseball scene.  Japanese stars have been coming to the US for decades, and I’d love to say that I saw the next Shohei Ohtani or Ichiro Suzuki when they were tearing it up in Japan.
