Did you know there is English-language coverage (though very limited) of some Pacific League games in Japan?
Veteran radio and public address announcer, Japan resident Bill Bickard, called play-by-play on the Rakuten Eagles-Softbank Hawks game from Sendai's Kleenex Stadium on Tuesday night, and he will do a few more in English this season.
Bickard broadcast three Eagles games in September of last year and expects to call a total of about 10 Pa League tilts this time around.
