Just because I miss baseball, I want to share this photo of my Portland Rockies baseball cap. They were a single A affiliate of the Rockies in the late 90s after the long-standing AAA Portland Beavers left one sad day. Baseball in Portland was great fun. Portland is the Rose City.

Here’s why the Monforts aren’t likely to sell the Rox anytime soon & have little incentive to try hard to fix things.
(Disclaimer:
1. It seems a little out of date.
2. I haven’t fact checked, but it looks right.)
It doesn’t matter that most attendees root for the visitor.

Yokohama Stadium yesterday where, sadly, the BayStars edged out the Swallows 3-2. The good news is that the Swallows’ lead off hitter hit the 1st pitch in the 1st inning from the vile Trevor Bauer into the left field bleachers. HR. Rejoice.
Stadium was full by the start of the game.

I’m a fan of the Colorado Rockies and Tokyo Yakult Swallows baseball clubs (please don’t snicker).
In celebration of their first spring training games of 2025, I share this photo from a few years ago of us at Coors Field watching the Rox while I sport my Swallows cap.

Here’s some beautiful sashimi I had at the sushi restaurant last night. It was just the beginning of an excellent meal.

If you find yourself in Ise and if you like gyōza, you must go to Gyōza no Misuzu.
Prepare to wait to get a seat at the counter.
Prepare to enjoy great gyōza.

UŌZMAN is a terrific little izakaya near Mizonoguchi station. It serves excellent, reasonably priced sashimi and has a good selection of nihonshu.
Be aware that smoking is permitted in the small place, and some people do so.
