The Global Baseball Games, billed as the Carnext Samurai Japan Series for sponsorship purposes,[1] are an international exhibition baseball series played between Samurai Japan and a team of European All-Stars. The series is typically played in Japan in the same year as the WBSC Premier12 tournament.
The first edition of the series was played in 2015, then known as the Global Baseball Match, and was the debut of Team Europe in international competition.[2][3] The next edition was played in 2024, at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka.[4] In the second game, six Japanese pitchers combined to throw a perfect game.[5]
