Catching a baseball game on Aug 18th

I've got an overnight layover and would love to catch a game. Can anyone fill me in on the best bet for a game on that evening?

I hate to post for info that's surely researchable, but I'm simply slammed w/ other tasks at the moment. Many thanks!

Edit: spelling

You are welcome. Lots of good information here http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/japan...light=baseball

I like sitting in the unreserved bleacher seats with the home team fans to get the full experience. Sing and chant to your heart's content. Even in Japanese, you'll get the hang of it by the third inning.

If you see a Swallows game, pick up a small umbrella beforehand. You'll know when to use it:
