This Premier 12 series is pretty good, Japan is up 7-6 on Cuba right now but Cuba has the bases loaded in the top of the 9th

MLB is trying to expand in Japan. Can Japan’s NPB grow in America?

Japanese baseball has a rich history, but a series of structural factors stand in the way of it becoming a phenomenon in America.

Good read. Very hard to watch NPB legally in the USA and hopefully that changes soon.

In the USA all you literally need to do is access sooplive.com and watch KBO games live (and on demand) lol
