This is a must do experience if you like sports at all. Japanese baseball is huge fun, and totally family friendly. There’s no aggressive people here like in other countries. The great thing, other than the baseball itself, is the crowd. There are special songs for each player, and the whole crowd knows them all. So when a batter steps up the whole stadium starts singing his song, which is awesome. I recommend you go to the team store first and get a pair of the plastic bashing sticks, then you can bash the rhythm out with everyone else! You can also get some of the balloons which get let off en masse at the 7th innings. There’s also food in the stadium which is pretty standard, so hot dogs, chips, popcorn etc. There are girls walking around all the time selling beer at your seat, which is also fun. The Tigers are one of the best teams in Japan so the game is typically really good too, and it’s not too costly. If you go to the Koshien Stadium website there’s and English guide to buying tickets, which we did and worked pretty well. The only issue you might have is if you ask for 2 tickets in a specific area, they might not be able to find two free seats beside each other. That case isn’t described in the English guide but it’s not too hard to figure out. Overall I couldn’t recommend this enough, please go, it’s brilliant
