If you are interested in Japanese baseball, check out
You Gotta Have Wa. The cultural differences and the effects on the way they play the game make for a very good read.

I'd actually like to read this book. If Mr. Baseball taught me anything (pause for canned laughter), it's just how interesting and different the game's nuances really are in Japan. The topic is something I've often mulled about in my head, seen in occasional news segments, but not seen in print.
