The Chicago Cubs and Los Angeles Dodgers are commencing their Spring Training early this year due to their participation in the Tokyo Series, slated for March 18-19. This marks a continuation of the Dodgers playing Opening Day overseas, with enthusiasm heightened by the anticipation of players like Shota Imanaga, who will pitch for the Cubs, and other Japanese talents. The games in Japan promise to garner significant attention, reflecting the Dodgers' strong following in the country, particularly with prominent players' involvement.
Shota's going to pitch in Japan," Counsell said. "I think that's mandated, kind of. I don't think I have a choice, actually.
Every single Dodgers game is broadcast live. So when you wake up every morning in Japan, every game is on TV because of Ohtani and Yamamoto. And they rebroadcast the games in the evening.
