The Hawks dominated Japanese baseball in 2024 before falling apart in the Japan Series last year. After traveling a rough road in the wake of that loss, the team is now firmly back on top. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/10/31/baseball/japanese-baseball/hawks-japan-series-win/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #baseball #japanesebaseball #fukuokasoftbankhawks #yokohamadenabaystars #japanseries

Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks pitcher Ryosuke Otsu made a hit during Game 4 of the Japan Series — and he might be one of the last to ever do it. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/10/30/baseball/japanese-baseball/pitchers-hitting-npb-otsu/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #baseball #japanesebaseball #ryosukeotsu #japanseries #fukuokasoftbankhawks #hirokikokubo #hanshintigers

The Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks made all the right moves against the Hanshin Tigers in Game 4 of the Japan Series to move one win away from the title. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/10/29/baseball/japanese-baseball/japan-series-hawks-tigers/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #baseball #japanesebaseball #japanseries #hanshintigers #fukuokasoftbankhawks #hirokikokubo #hotakayamakawa #ryosukeotsu

Kenta Imamiya's spectacular play helped SoftBank win Game 3 of the Japan Series, and it may live on in team lore if the club goes on to capture the championship. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/10/29/baseball/japanese-baseball/japan-series-game-3-imamiya/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #baseball #japanesebaseball #kentaimamiya #fukuokasoftbankhawks #hanshintigers #japanseries

The Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks did just enough to escape with a victory over the Hanshin Tigers in Game 3 of the Japan Series on Tuesday. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/10/28/baseball/japanese-baseball/hawks-win-japan-series-third-game/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #baseball #japanesebaseball #japanseries #kentaimamiya #livanmoinelo #fukuokasoftbankhawks #hanshintigers

The Hanshin Tigers' famously fervent supporters will likely kick it up another few levels as the Japan Series shifts to Koshien, beginning with Game 3 on Tuesday night. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/10/27/baseball/japanese-baseball/japan-series-game-3-preview/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #baseball #japanesebaseball #japanseries #hanshintigers #fukuokasoftbankhawks #kyujifujikawa #hirokikokubo #ukyoshuto

Ukyo Shuto’s blazing speed was on display during the first two games of the Japan Series, but he also made his mark at the plate and in center field in an all-around display. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/10/27/baseball/japanese-baseball/ukyo-shuto-japan-series/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #baseball #japanesebaseball #ukyoshuto #fukuokasoftbankhawks #hanshintigers #japanseries

Tigers starter Shoki Murakami found it hard to get into a rhythm against the Hawks on Saturday in Game 1 of the Japan Series, but he stuck to his guns, reached into his bag of tricks and persevered. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/10/26/baseball/japanese-baseball/shoki-murakami-tigers-perseverance/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #baseball #japanesebaseball #japanseries #shokimurakami #hanshintigers #fukuokasoftbankhawks

The Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks host the Hanshin Tigers in Game 1 of this year’s Japan Series on Saturday night — and will be motivated to finish the job this time. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/10/24/baseball/japanese-baseball/japan-series-preview-hawks-tigers/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #baseball #japanesebaseball #hanshintigers #fukuokasoftbankhawks #hirokikokubo #japanseries #tatsuruyanagimachi

After being at the wrong end of what might have been the greatest upset in Japan Series history last year, the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks are aiming to get it right this time. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/09/29/baseball/japanese-baseball/hawks-japan-series-revenge/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #baseball #japanesebaseball #fukuokasoftbankhawks #hirokikokubo #japanseries

BayStars manager Daisuke Miura and team owner Tomoko Namba spoke about the team's Japan Series triumph at the national press club on Monday. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2024/11/11/baseball/japanese-baseball/baystars-never-lost-faith-japan-series/ #baseball #japanesebaseball #daisukemiura #tomokonamba #yokohamabaystars #fukuokasoftbankhawks #japanseries

Last night the BayStars of Yokohama annihilated the Hawks of Fukuoka 11-2 to win the Japan Series.
After losing the first two games the BayStars won 4 straight, outscoring the powerful Hawks 28-3 over those 4 games.
Incredible playoff run by the underdogs.
And so baseball is over until Spring.

I’m watching Game 6 of the Japan Series, which is being played in the Central League (CL) park.
The CL eschews the DH (as God intended). So I’ve seen a couple of double switches.
If you’re too young to know what a double switch is, I feel sorry for you. Your forebears failed you.

Game 6 of the Japan Series was rained out last night. They’ll play tonight. Game 7, if needed, will be tomorrow night.

Last night in the Japan Series the BayStars downed the Hawks 7-0 and now lead the series 3-2. The BayStars have outscored the Hawks 16-1 over the last 3 games. Back to Yokohama tomorrow for Game 6. The home team has lost every game of the series.

From the small mountain town of Kobuchisawa.
Last night the underdog BayStars beat the mighty Hawks 5-0 to even the Japan Series 2-2. The BayStars have outscored the Hawks 9-1 over the last 2 games, on the Hawks’ home field. Game 5 tonight.
On the train much of the day, I saw very little of today’s World Series game. Looks like it was quite a show.

Last night the BayStars defeated the Hawks 4-1. Hawks now lead the Japan Series 2-1.
They go at it again tonight.

The Hawks are on the verge of steamrolling toward another Japan Series title if the first two games of this year’s series are any indication. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2024/10/28/baseball/hawks-japan-series-lead/ #baseball #hotakayamakawa #fukuokasoftbankhawks #yokohamabaystars #japanseries #hirokikokubo

NPB update. The Hawks beat the BayStars last night 6-3 to take a 2-0 lead in the Japan Series. The teams now head to Fukuoka, home of the Hawks, for games 3, 4 and 5 ( if needed). I expect the Hawks will wrap things up there, but the BayStars have surprised before and I’ve underestimated them before.

I know you’re wondering how the Japan Series is going. Well, see the link below.
The Hawks play in the Pacific League, which uses the DH. The BayStars play in the Central League, which (as God intended) doesn’t.
Note that the Hawks pitcher, who doesn’t normally bat, not only pitched a great game, but he also drove in the winning run.

Due to an irresistible invitation to join some friends at one of my favorite izakayas tonight, I’ll miss the first game of the Japan Series between the Hawks and the BayStars.
But I did get to see a pretty good World Series game today.

To say the Yokohama DeNA BayStars are underdogs against the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks in the Japan Series would be putting it mildly. But luckily for NPB's surprise team of the postseason, championships are not decided on paper. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2024/10/26/baseball/japanese-baseball/japan-series-preview-hawks-baystars/ #baseball #japanesebaseball #japanseries #yokohamabaystars #fukuokasoftbankhawks

Sayaka Ishii’s run of underdog victories at this week's Pan Pacific Open is similar to that of the DeNA BayStars, a club with which she shares a special connection. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2024/10/24/tennis/sayaka-ishii-pan-pacific-open/ #tennis #sayakaishii #takuroishii #panpacificopen #yokohamabaystars #japanseries

Concerns have been raised over differences in the treatment of local government officials who will be mobilized for upcoming parades in the Kansai region to celebrate this year's victories by two professional baseball teams. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2023/11/14/japan/japan-baseball-local-government-workers/?utm_content=buffer7693a&utm_medium=social&utm_source=mastodon&utm_campaign=bffmstdn #japan #localgovernment #osaka #hyogo #japanseries #baseball #hanshintigers #orixbuffaloes
