    I can't believe Lee got back to first. Still got the double play.

    Ooh. A knee to the face. He broke his helmet.

        Pretty sure both starts in late April, because both leagues play ~130 games or so. Ends around the same time as MLB though.

            Big play for the DP.

                And Bavasi traded Choo for Ben Broussard. Unbelievable.

                  Based on what I just found, the Japan league starts at the beginning of April (April 3rd this year) and the regular season is 144 games and ends in September/October depending on which league. The first two rounds of playoffs happen in October, and their Series is in November.

                  No clue on Korea.

                    Korea has a 130 game ish schedule so I imagine they don't start that early.

                    They only have 8 teams in their league, so top 4 plays in the playoffs. The 2nd-4th teams play each other for the right to play 1st place in the final best-of-7 series. 3rd and 4th place plays out 5 games for the right to battle 2nd place and then they do it again for the right to play for the championship.

                      Iwakuma's about done, he's leaving juicy pitches out over the plate. Japan NEEDS to go to the bullpen why leave him in there for so long.

                      IMO he should've been done after Dai Ho Lee came out.

                          Holy freakin moly, that slider is filthy. That's one of the best sliders I've seen period.

                            They play a 130 game season for an 8 team league? That's ridiculous.

                              Yeah that slider nasty. Rob Nenn still has the nastiest slider I have ever seen.
