A REAL "World Series"

[yankthis]

It would be great to have an exhibition series between the MLB World Series winner and the Japanese national champion team each year.

 

Of course it would probably never happen due to logistical issues (players want to go home for the winter, etc.)

 

But it would sure be the nutz if they did that.

yeah that would be cool

...and Kapler would hit a game walk off HR in the bottom of the 35th inning and the red sox would be the REAL WORLD CHAMPIONS

the Japanese national champion team? Are you talking about the Japanese national team (that would compete in the olympics/WBC/Other International competition) or the Japan Series Winner (japan's pro league's version of the world series. Actually known as The Nippon Series). Japans pro legue is called NPB (Nippon Professional Baseball), the league where the Giants, Hanshin Tigers, Chiba Lotte Marines, Softbanck Hawks, etc play.

 

 

Is that who you mean or doe you want the World Series winner vs their National team?

I think it's the pro league.

 

Try and convince Sheff to play one extra series...it'll have to be made mandatory from Steinbrenner himself, contractually sealed, because he seems adament against any extra playing time.

This would never happen. Plus the Major League team would rip the Japan team to pieces.

Well come to think of it don't they have a "MLB All-Star team" against "Japanese All-Star team", that happens after the season is over. I think because that's when and where Roger Clemens learned that he got this seventh Cy Young.

 

I think the Japanese team took a game? It's still good publicity?

 

LOL, got a kick out of Edgerrin James complaining about traveling to Japan for preseason Colts-Falcons game. It's a long plane ride, and maybe he gets a total of five carries. But I mean, sure it would mess up your Circadian rhythm, but a free trip to Japan? There are so many things to do there, all the sashimi you can eat...
