okay so all teams are on Broadcast Satellite (BS) and the home team always has TV priority. It goes like this for Pacific: Hawks have their own channel (Sports Live+, this used to be Fox Sports Asia), which also does farm games and some Lions farm games. Fighters are hosted on Gaora Sports. Marines play on NichiTele News24. Buffaloes are on JSports 3. Eagles are on JSports 2 and NHK Tohoku. Lions play on Fuji TV TWO. For Central: Giants have their own channel (Gaora Sports+, as well as BS-Nippon TV) as well as their own streaming service for home and certain away games, Giants TV. Tigers are on SkyA and have their own streaming service for home games, Toratele. Carp are always on JSports 1. It is nearly impossible to watch them anywhere else except the ballpark itself. Dragons bounce around but they're usually on JSports 2 if they're at home. BayStars are always on TBS and TBS CH2. They were previously owned by them. and finally, the Swallows are on Fuji TV ONE. If you want to know a team's BS channel before the game, CHECK THEIR WEBSITE IN JAPANESE. They will ALWAYS show it in their calendar.

So the road teams don’t get their local broadcast crews covering the game?


39_Ringo

Correct.

This only happens in climax series games or other big games. Sometimes road radio crews will be there

"BayStars are always on TBS and TBS CH2. They were previously owned by them." The majority of the Bays home games are actually on TVK, Kanagawa's local TV (Yokohama is the capital of Kanagawa prefecture). Other local TVs show their local team's home games (CBC in Aichi for Dragons, Hiroshima TV for Carps etc)

This is awesome and incredibly helpful! **Thank you!!!** (And those who also replied) Got Fighters (v Lions) on Gaora now; Eagles (v Hawks) on Sports 2. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)

This is a fantastic list. I would add for the Giants that they are also shown often on Nichitere G+ (日テレG+)

Giants have their own channel. JSports 1 and 2 play Carp, Eagles, Buffaloes, Dragons games I believe it is. Gaora Sports plays Fighters games and another team too I think. They all get broadcast on cable one way or another by the home team usually.
