On my second attempt, I made it to NPB game #9 at Yokohama Stadium to watch the DeNA Baystars take on the Yomiuri Giants. The Baystars lost in a 6-7 heartbreaker.
In other news, I took a few days off and went to stay at a ryokhan in Matsumoto. It’s a great little city in the Nagano prefict, near the Japanese Alps. Got to check out Matsumoto Castle, which is the most original/authentic of the castles I’ve seen so far.
