Schedule checked: November 09, 2026, 03:09 UTC. Nippon Professional Baseball's published first-team calendar lists no NPB club games for November 9–15, 2026. Fans looking for baseball in Japan that week can instead follow the separate Asia Professional Baseball Championship (APBC), a national-team tournament scheduled for November 12–15 at Tokyo Dome.
The NPB November calendar, marked as updated April 24, leaves those seven dates blank. The Samurai Japan tournament schedule lists Japan, Korea, Australia and Chinese Taipei in the APBC. These international games are not NPB league fixtures; times and pairings should be checked again with organizers before travel.
No first-team NPB games appear on the official November schedule for any of those dates. The calendar's November 1 line refers to a possible Japan Series game, while the November 9–15 lines have no club matchups. That is a description of the published schedule, not a guarantee that no exhibition, amateur, farm-team or other baseball event can occur.
The calendar is an advance document and carries an April 24 update date. Fans should consult NPB's current game pages and the clubs directly for any later changes. This distinction matters because a national-team tournament can include professional players without being a regular-season or postseason NPB club game.
The APBC is listed as a four-team international competition featuring Japan, Australia, Chinese Taipei and Korea. The tournament page names NPB and the baseball organizations in Australia, Chinese Taipei and Korea as hosts. The venue is Tokyo Dome, but that does not turn the event into a matchup between the stadium's NPB club and another NPB team.
On Thursday, November 12, the schedule lists Korea versus Australia at noon and Chinese Taipei versus Japan at 7 p.m. On Friday, November 13, Australia meets Chinese Taipei at noon, followed by Japan versus Korea at 7 p.m. All times in this article are local Japan Standard Time, UTC+9, as used for the Tokyo schedule.
On Saturday, November 14, Australia versus Japan is scheduled for noon and Korea versus Chinese Taipei for 7 p.m. On Sunday, November 15, the third-place game is listed for 11 a.m. and the final for 7 p.m. Participants in those two games remain to be determined on the published schedule.
These are scheduled start times rather than completed results. Check the official tournament page for changes, broadcast details, ticket availability and the final lineups; this report does not assume those details or predict the outcome of any game.
NPB's calendar tracks Japan's professional club competition, including its two leagues and the Japan Series. The APBC page identifies national representative teams and a tournament organized with partners from several baseball systems. A search for an NPB team's next game can therefore produce a misleading answer if international fixtures are treated as club games.
For readers planning the week, the useful takeaway is straightforward: the official NPB club calendar has no listed first-team fixture in the seven-day window, while the international calendar provides six scheduled opening-round games and two placement games at Tokyo Dome. Those events belong to different competitions and should be followed on their respective official pages.
None is listed on NPB's published November calendar. Japan versus Korea is scheduled that evening, but it is an APBC national-team game.
The tournament schedule lists Japan against Chinese Taipei on November 12 at 7 p.m., Korea on November 13 at 7 p.m. and Australia on November 14 at noon. All are Tokyo local time.
The official schedule lists the teams as to be determined. The final is scheduled for 7 p.m. at Tokyo Dome; check the organizer's page for updates.
