well... Hanshin is out and I had to deal with meetings all day at work so not so great, but hey at least baseball is on tv!
Chase Brooks
yeah, double basebal today :)
Zachary Rivera

Blake Rivera
Rakuten BFTOing Softbank
what happened with the team that won regular season of P League?
Christopher Hernandez
>tfw I dont have J-sports 1 and have to watch DeNA vs Carp via stream like a pleb
Justin Allen
i thogout that J-Sports was basic channel like BS1
they are so low in sports that be not in basic package makes it be a joke
Connor Martin
>tfw class in 6.5 hours
Caleb Ward
>not sleeping early just to watch the game
Jeremiah Lopez
i can hear music playing in the middle of plays? that's allowed?
Kayden Evans
my provider (Jcom) doesnt even offer J-sports 1 as a channel only 4 is available and I still have to pay extra for it if I want it
David Evans
yeah, its like Soccer/Football ultras
They play songs about the teams and the players during the game in order of give motivation
Jonathan Cox
I can watch the rakuten vs softbank game on NHKBS1 though
Parker James
you should change into SkyPerfect
it should be expensive, but they it seems that has more channels
Samuel Peterson
right right, I know about all that music stuff(I'm in a college drumline) but here when the ball is in play your team can get penalties if you play music
Thomas Murphy
bringing your instrument to play music for your team is a Jap baseball tradition. They even have a section where all the musicians sit and you are only allowed to play when your team is batting
Jacob Rodriguez
unfortunately according to my landlord only Jcom offers service in my area. Its kind of funny because I have a friend that works there and he absolutely hates it and complains nonstop about Jcom being a shitty black company
Alexander Smith
wait so its just random fans?
William Lewis
The fact that DeNA vs carp is only on J-sports 1 is probably why there are so many japs watching these streams
Adam Reed
its kind of ironic that even in Japan this type of BS happens lol
at least streaming is common to everyone so i can watch matches too
Alexander Collins
I think you cant just bring it if you feel like it. You have to join a specific group or something.
Camden Jackson
that's pretty cool though. for my school baseball is one of the only sports with no band since you can't play when the ball is in play
James Sanchez
yeah its nice now. Years ago all you could do is listen to the radio. Even now if your regular season game goes on for too long they just change the program and move the game to a different (usually paid) channel. If you dont have it you have to take out your radio
Camden Scott
Yeah it definitely gives NPB a different feel from MLB among a lot of other things (cheerleaders etc.). I should probably do some research on how to join the music group.
Colton Walker
i just hope that in the future they dont become stream hunters worst than US, for some teams like fighters that wants give a international approaching, those types of streams are vital
Aiden Reed
Yeah, knowing Japanese companies it will probably take them a while to figure out what streaming is though
Brayden Wright
what do you play?
Jace Brown
trumpet. I think thats the only instrument they allow actually
Luke Carter
yeah it sounds like trumpet screeching
Michael Phillips
High School bands uses other instruments too tho
Benjamin Allen
yeah the highschool cheering is totally different. College too
Bentley Perry
industiral baseball also follows High School/College systems also
its like the system of band that plays more
Daniel Johnson
even though it isnt popular I think that college baseball has the most hype/fun cheering
Jaxon Morales
i tried watch Big 6 that plays on Swallows stadium but they stream was fucking geoblocked
Lucas Richardson
God, Did SoftBank are still on end season mood? they even had a pratice game and are still playing shitty like after the regular season clintch
Jose Sullivan
I cant find any good videos on youtube of the college cheering but basically they always have a hypeman and cheerleaders dancing on a raised platform. The hypeman is the best part because he just strikes "intimidating" poses, punches the air, stomps on the stage and shit its fucking great
Ryan Myers
rakuten just keeps cranking out homers. If they continue like this they might just win the series
Joshua Bennett
Sit down fatty.
Kayden Nguyen
fatass needs to calm down
Blake Davis
>fatass
who is the fatass?
Wyatt Gomez
Dat leg kick
Jeremiah Evans
Despainge. Some Cuban
Kevin Rodriguez
デスパイネ on softbank. tried acting tough after getting tagged out
Camden Nelson
You follow mlb? Darvish was masterful last night.
Lincoln Hernandez
yeah I have a live update on my pc at work but of course it is difficult to keep up during the regular season. I've been following Darvish since he was on Nippon ham, glad to see he is finally on a team that has a chance at the WS
Charles Howard
>cuban of course its a cuban
Jackson Jackson
maybe you should try use streams for MLB too, some sites even stream BS1 and JSports feed, maybe if you get into discord i can send you the links
Jace James
I would but I cant watch streams at work, its too obvious that im not getting anything done lol
Michael Edwards
yeah theres it too, but maybe you can ask friends for MLB streams services like DAZN or Spotsnavi
Elijah Hall
fuck, Hiroshima - Yokohama game is on rain delay
Jordan Butler
yeah thats true. Usually for big games I can watch a replay on regular tv here though.
also holy shit its fucking pouring at this DeNA vs Carp game
Carson Brooks
damn is this rakuten v softbank a game or a homerun derby?
Dylan Stewart
How much is the Japanese media creaming itself at the prospect of a Darvish/Ma-kun matchup in the World Series?
Ian Price
Is Naito playing for the Carps?
Easton James
Its been mentioned in the sports section of the news quite often. All of the baseball fans here are hoping they can watch what is considered to be the two best Japanese pitchers play against each other in the WS.
Samuel Richardson
Tanaka vs. Keuchel will be a good matchup today.
Brandon Smith
Is japanese pro wrestling really that popular worldwide?
Alexander Gomez
yeah, its a damn shame the games start at like 6am here or something
Ethan Mitchell
No but I like it
Elijah Carter
here is the reverse, NPB games starts 6am here
Actually here is 8am
Justin Richardson
dang are you a NEET or something?
also man I hate seeing fat DHs in my NPB
James Torres
They don't import 'em like Tyrone Woods anymore
Kevin Johnson
my college its at night and most part of my work is at home so as soon i come from college i got to sleep in order of awake early
i could be a DH better than those Cubans
Cooper Ramirez
No, but it's gaining steam among indyfags
I miss getting up at 5 AM for big games, but the >Drags haven't played one in 5 years ;_;
Alexander Russell
>also man I hate seeing fat DHs in my NPB
They're starting to get less valuable here thankfully. Pujols had a good year with raw stats hitting 25 homers and 100 rbis, but he was actually the worst player in the league.
Asher Scott
Just tuned in, what inning is this?
Christopher White
Swallows are going to dump out valentin too if this also counts
Drags had a good season but not enough to get in playoffs, they blew up too many games
SoftBank - Rakuten Eagles is on 7th Hiroshima - Yokohama is on rain delay
Andrew Foster
Hiroshima - Yokohama game just got called
Blake Ward
what happens when a game is called before the mid game on Climax Final? they will have to play again?
Levi Foster
The announcer just said that its going to be counted as a win for carp. Thats pretty shit imo but that means carp is 2-0 in the series and only 1 game away from a win
Gabriel Jenkins
>good season >20 games under .500 Unearthing Kyouda was good, but the whole pitching staff needs to be overhauled; it wasn't long ago that Masa Yamamoto in his mid-40s was a viable starter
William Wilson
your team got BFTOed from 2-0 so that is not so much of a problem to BayStars
but also i think that Hiroshima is going to meme blew again on Nippon Series
as i said they blew matches too much, i lost the count of games where Drags was ahead untill give runs at end
i dont knew witch was worst, Swallows (that is the team that i cheer) or Drags
Owen Roberts
Does Japan ever talk about how it always seems like they don't call games mid-game unless the home team is winning? I've seen this scenario too often, almost always involving Hanshin:
>6th inning >Home team down 1 >typhoon-like rain >no rain delay called >home team scores 2 runs in the 7th >game finally called
Jace Harris
>Swallows are going to dump out valentin too if this also counts
Yeah. Fat DHs who are one dimensional power hitters can't really contribute in any other way. They can't beat out infield hits, stretch doubles, score from 2nd on singles, steal bases, and they obviously don't field.
When Prince Fielder hit 50 homers, he was actually below all-star level with a 3.6 WAR (not sure if you're into advanced stats, but all star level players are 5 and above.)
Andrew Mitchell
Definitely Yakult; wasn't that the worst season in their history?
And yeah, with the Drags they'd be up 1 most of the time and the bullpen blows it (or that one time the Dragons were up 10-0 and lost it in the 7th and 8th)
Grayson Morris
the first stage in the CS is a 3 game series Hanshin only won game 1. This stage however is a 6 game series with Carp starting with a 1 game advantage in the event of a 3-3 tie the team with the higher record (carp) wins. Its a really shitty system that has been criticized by the players endlessly. Basically baystars has to win the next 4 games
Samuel King
of course the fans complain but the higher ups cant be bothered to give a shit its a system that works for and against them
Luis Sanchez
Think baseball could ever grow in Brazil? I think it has a place since you don't have a popular bat-and-ball game over there.
James Bell
Post
Julian Walker
its starting to grow here, Yakult made a parternship with us and help yous to bulid a MLB level tranning center, we are sending some players to AAA and we just our biggest picher transaction of out Baseball story to Red Socks (2M Dollars)
But our sport has a way in front, ironically we have only around 50 fields here and most fields are in south or in São Paulo where the Japs live
A local team here plays improvised on a dirt soccer field for a exemple
the difference with soccer here is huge, but i think that we can follow Football paths and bulid at least a solid culture
Michael Rodriguez
ONE RUN GAME!
Christian Cooper
We´re gooooooooooo this is going to be epic
Lucas Wilson
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand its over GG rakuten
Rakuten vs Softbank series (1-1) tied DeNA Baystars vs Carp series (0-2) Carp leads
Ian Jackson
Fat Cuban ruins it.
Owen Torres
REMOVE RUM!
Jackson Gonzalez
Nice. Have to start somewhere. Hopefully the slow pace doesn't turn people from learning about it.
