Baseball in Japan - Chiba Lotte Marines vs Orix Buffaloes- October 7th 2023

Nippon Professional Baseball 日本野球機構 or NPB is the highest level of baseball in Japan. Locally, it is often called Puro Yakyū プロ野球 meaning Professional Baseball. Outside of Japan, it is often referred to as "Japanese baseball".

The roots of the league can be traced back to the formation of the "Greater Japan Tokyo Baseball Club" 大日本東京野球倶楽部 in Tokyo, founded in 1934, and the original circuit for the sport in the Empire founded two years later, the Japanese Baseball League (JBL), which continued to play even through the final years of World War II.

The organization that is today's NPB was formed when the JBL reorganized in 1950, creating two leagues with six teams each in the Central League and the Pacific League with an annual season-ending Japan Series championship play-off series of games starting that year.

In this game we visit the Chiba Marines host the defending champion Orix Buffaloes. This is the final home game of the season for the Marines so the atmosphere was electric in front of a capacity crowd of 30,000 fans. These two releases will face each other in the upcoming playoffs.

Japan has many things to see and do and baseball is one of the best activity to take part in because the crowd is as much a part of the game as the team. It’s unlike any other baseball environment in the world.
