Japanese Baseball Game Experience in Tokyo, Japan
Come join me for a Japanese Baseball Game experience at Meiji Jingu Stadium as I watch the Yakult Swallows play against the Chunichi Dragons in Tokyo, Japan. Going to a baseball game in Japan is affordable and the overall experience is incredible given how passionate the fans are for each team. In terms of prices the ticket for the baseball game was 1,300 Yen, beer was 500 Yen and food items were between 400 to 750 Yen in general. Basically, you could watch a game, have a beer and a bite to eat for under $25 USD. If you'd like to watch a baseball game in Tokyo you have the options of the Dragons or the Swallows. The Dragons are the most famous team in the league and tickets are hard to come by so book in advance espeically during the summer months or on weekends.

Japanese Baseball Game Experience in Tokyo, Japan (野球 - やきゅう) Travel Video Transcript:
Good afternoon guys. Today is a bit of a special episode in the sense that I'm not with Audrey. Audrey is off visiting a friend here in Tokyo, Japan.
And what I'm doing today is I'm heading over to the metro station right now with a plan of traveling 4 stops to watch a baseball game here in Tokyo.
And I can't wait to share the entire experience with you because going to a baseball game in Japan is a pretty unique experience.
Finally made it. Jingu Stadium. So guys tonight we've got the Swallows versus the Dragons. And the fans are basically directed to different sides of the stadium so the Swallows fans would go to the first base side as you can see over there on the left and fans of the Dragons would go to the third base side as indicated on the right.
Tokyo Yakult Swallows! Rising! That is the official slogan.
So a few fun facts before I head into the stadium. Japanese Baseball League basically has 12 professional teams I believe. And the teams are not named after cities they are named after companies.
So the very first game we went to in Osaka we watched the Hanshin Tigers and they are named after the Hanshin Electric Company. And sometimes there is multiple teams in some of the big cities. For instance, in Tokyo there is two teams. In Osaka there is two teams.
So yeah it is kind of interesting. It is a smaller league but the fans are super passionate. If it is anything like the game we went to in Osaka I'm going to be in for a real treat.
I'm inside Jingu Stadium but before I sit down and start watching the game I've got to show you the concession. Like the options here at Japanese baseball games is incredible. Like the diversity of food that you can pick up is just insane. Also the prices are really reasonable so let's go take a little bit of a tour of the concessions here at the stadium.
Easily one of the coolest things about baseball here in Japan is that every player has a unique song for them. So when they come up to bat the crowd just has this unique chant that is only for them and it just makes it so festive and so cool.
Okay guys just a few final thoughts here from the game. That was simply awesome. Going to a baseball game in Japan is a must. It is the number one spectator sport in the country. The entertainment value is insane. Even if you're not a baseball fan I'd highly recommend going. The tickets are affordable, the food the concession food is affordable and the entertainment value is incredible. The level of play is really high, the fans get into it like I've never seen fans so passionate. So if you're thinking of going to a baseball game in Japan definitely do it and we'll see you guys soon with more food and travel videos from Japan. Ciao for now.
This is part of our Travel in Japan video series showcasing Japanese food, Japanese culture and Japanese cuisine.

Take Out Your Umbrellas, It’s Time For Japanese Baseball
One day Sakamoto suggested we all here at CJC (us two plus Rose) go do so some coverage at a Japanese ball game, and so we did! We decided on Jingu Stadium located just a few stations from Shinjuku.
Pretty interesting right? Even though there was no rain everyone took out their umbrellas.

This was before a game between the Yakult Swallows and the Yokohama Bay Stars at the somewhat cheesy but atmospheric Jingu Stadium (built in 1926) in Tokyo, May 1, 2010. The place looks more like a minor than a major league stadium.

A Visit to Tokyo's Dome City and the Japanese Baseball Hall of Fame
I edited and posted this video for the benefit of baseball lovers and my friends who have never and may never get to visit the Japanese baseball hall of fame in Tokyo. Seeped in history and lore, I highly recommend taking yourself for a tour in this well kept facility. It is only 500 yen ($5) to get in and is located right next to the Tokyo Dome, where the Yomiuri Giants play.
There are 177 inductees into the Hall. There is also are sections devoted to high school baseball, college baseball and a women's league. I also got to watch a demonstration concerning the physics of a pitched baseball. Did you know baseball continued in Japan during World War II, just as it did in the United States?
My video is a tribute to all that is Japanese baseball and a memory for my friends.

SUMMARY
=======
Tokyo (東京, Tōkyō, ; Japanese: [toːkʲoː] (listen)), officially Tokyo Metropolis (東京都, Tōkyō-to), one of the 47 prefectures of Japan, has served as the Japanese capital since 1869. As of 2014, the Greater Tokyo Area ranked as the most populous metropolitan area in the world. The urban area houses the seat of the Emperor of Japan, of the Japanese government and of the National Diet. Tokyo forms part of the Kantō region on the southeastern side of Japan's main island, Honshu, and includes the Izu Islands and Ogasawara Islands. Tokyo was formerly named Edo when Shōgun Tokugawa Ieyasu made the city as his headquarters in 1603. It became the capital after Emperor Meiji moved his seat to the city from Kyoto in 1868; at that time Edo was renamed Tokyo. Tokyo Metropolis formed in 1943 from the merger of the former Tokyo Prefecture (東京府, Tōkyō-fu) and the city of Tokyo (東京市, Tōkyō-shi).
Tokyo is often referred to as a city but is officially known and governed as a metropolitan prefecture, which differs from and combines elements of a city and a prefecture, a characteristic unique to Tokyo.
The 23 Special Wards of Tokyo were formerly Tokyo City. On July 1, 1943, it merged with Tokyo Prefecture and became Tokyo Metropolis with an additional 26 municipalities in the western part of the prefecture, and the Izu islands and Ogasawara islands south of Tokyo. The population of the special wards is over 9 million people, with the total population of Tokyo Metropolis exceeding 13.8 million. The prefecture is part of the world's most populous metropolitan area called the Greater Tokyo Area with over 38 million people and the world's largest urban agglomeration economy. As of 2011, Tokyo hosted 51 of the Fortune Global 500 companies, the highest number of any city in the world at that time. Tokyo ranked third (twice) in the International Financial Centres Development Index. The city is home to various television networks such as Fuji TV, Tokyo MX, TV Tokyo, TV Asahi, Nippon Television, NHK and the Tokyo Broadcasting System.
Tokyo ranks first in the Global Economic Power Index and third in the Global Cities Index. The GaWC's 2008 inventory classified Tokyo as an alpha+ world city – and as of 2014 TripAdvisor's World City Survey ranked Tokyo first in its Best overall experience category (the city also ranked first in the following categories: helpfulness of locals, nightlife, shopping, local public transportation and cleanliness of streets). As of 2015 Tokyo ranked as the 11th-most expensive city for expatriates, according to the Mercer consulting firm, and also the world's 11th-most expensive city according to the Economist Intelligence Unit's cost-of-living survey. In 2015, Tokyo was named the Most Liveable City in the world by the magazine Monocle. The Michelin Guide has awarded Tokyo by far the most Michelin stars of any city in the world. Tokyo was ranked first out of all sixty cities in the 2017 Safe Cities Index. The QS Best Student Cities ranked Tokyo as the 3rd-best city in the world to be a university student in 2016 and 2nd in 2018.
