Skymark Stadium
From BR Bullpen
Skymark Stadium is the secondary home of the Orix Buffaloes. The Orix Blue Wave moved into Skymark Stadium in 1988. It currently holds 30,075. The dimensions from left-center-right are 325, 400, 325.
It was previously known as Green Stadium Kobe from 1988 to 2002 and Yahoo! BB Stadium (2003 to 2004) after the naming rights were bought by Softbank who's the largest shareholder in Yahoo! Japan. Skymark Airlines acquired the naming rights in 2005.
After Orix bought the Osaka Dome, the Buffaloes cut their home games at Skymark Stadium significantly.
