Jackson pitches DeNA to brink of Japan Series championship

Couldn't give a stuff about baseball, but hopefully Yokohama get the win and honor the legendary British merchant Samuel Cocking in the process, a long time resident of the city and whom was laid to rest in the Yokohama Foreign General Cemetery on Yamate Hill.

@Jay--that is probably low on the list for any Baystars players to thank in their hero interview.

If you want to tell the world about Sammy Cocking, do it as cosplay performance art at game 6 Saturday evening. Bonus style points if you include a replica of the Kobe weathercock perched on your head.

That is actually a brilliant idea. I may also distribute soap, bicycles, and electric lightbulbs to fellow onlookers.

Soap and light bulbs are plausible enough-- you could tell the bag checkers you came straight to the game from Komeri. But no way you could park a truckload of bicycles at the stadium. Why not a bike bell giveaway?
