Next To Lotte Chocolate Factory
From 150 mph Shinkansen Express you can see a poor ballpark next to Lotte chocolate and chewing gum factory which is owned by Marines' parent company.
There are only a few bench seats at both sides of the field and no seats behind the backstop. However handreds of fans always come here on game days, even though some people have to stand to see Marines game.
The advantage of this balpark is that you can get so close to players, especisally at the third base side pitching practise can be seen just beside the bullpen.
It's a pity that there is no consession, although Lotte is one of the biggest confectionary company in Japan. There are only a few vending machines.
