On 14 February the Giants arrived at Okinawa Cellular Stadium Naha and the Hiroshima Carp at Koza Shinkin Stadium in Okinawa City.
Samsung's dates at the Akama ballpark in Onna had not been set when OCVB published its list. Ishigaki's tourism association also lists a Chiba Lotte Marines camp on Ishigaki in February. Each camp takes rest days through the month, and OCVB asks visitors to check the team's own site before they go.
Worth knowing
- The Chatan and Ginowan camps are in west-coast towns, so a coastal ride can end at the ballpark.
