Back in 2008 I was in Japan for a few months and got to see a few Japanese baseball games.

The first game I went to was at Yokohama Stadium and featured a Central League matchup between the Yokohama Bay Stars and the Chunichi Dragons.

The game had a college football game atmosphere complete with cheerleaders and bands.

Here are some photographs I took from the game.

The last picture is from Tokyo and has nothing to do with baseball but it is of Salma Hayek.
