Baseball: Fighters' new ballpark in Hokkaido

The Nippon Ham Fighters' new home stadium, Es Con Field Hokkaido, in Kitahiroshima, northern Japan, opens with Nippon Professional Baseball's season-opening game against the Tohoku Rakuten Eagles on March 30, 2023. The stadium boasts huge screens above the spectators seats on the right and left sides, as well as a retractable roof to shield the game and its natural grass turf from Hokkaido's frigid winters and snowy weather.
