This just in: Baseball -- especially the World Baseball Classic -- is very popular in Japan.
Repeat: very popular.
Major League Baseball just announced that one-third of all televisions in Japan -- the ones that were turned on -- were tuned in to Japan's three first-round games in Fukuoka, Japan.
That's more than any broadcast of the 2012 Summer Olympics or any other non-World Cup sporting event in the past year.
Japan has three of its first four games in seeking its third consecutive WBC championship. Its opener against Brazil, a 5-3 victory, drew 35% of viewers. Japan's next two first-round games, a win over China and a loss against Cuba, drew a 30% share.
The game against Cuba might have drawn more had both teams not already qualified for second-round action.
Japan opened second-round action Friday by defeating Chinese Taipei, 4-3, in 10 innings at the Tokyo Dome. In the other second-round game there, the Netherlands defeated Cuba, 6-2.

上午，梁序穆帶來日本瓷器一小匣送給先生，裏面裝有六隻小酒杯。先生對於日本的小工藝很饡美，說：「他們把東方的gentle 表現出來，做得很精緻、價廉，來爭取外匯。他們能夠控制東方的藝術。」
