Yakult outfieder Atsunori InabaThe Yakult Swallows: If you're not familiar with Japanese baseball, you may be overwhelmed trying to learn everything in one gulp. That's why this site focuses on the Swallows. You'll learn about the team, it's history, players, and manager. After a few minutes, you'll be able to cheer for the Swallows as if you'd known them for years.

Japanese Baseball: Once you know the Swallows, you can learn about the other Japanese baseball teams, players and ballparks.

See a Game: Now that you have an idea who you want to see, it's time to get yourself to the nearest ballpark. But where is it? Here you'll find maps, directions, and information about all-star games, Major League tours, the Japan Series, and other games you won't want to miss.
