Lotte Orions in Sendai and Kawasaki

Lotte Orions in Sendai and Kawasaki
Can anyone tell me what years the Lotte Orions played in Sendai and Kawasaki? I think Sendai was 1973 to 1977 or 1974-77, but I am not sure.

It was not in 1973. I played there and our stadium was Tokyo Stadium.

Mr. Lopez,

I am working with Wally Yonamine on his biography. I would like an interview if possible. Could you please contact me off list?

Thank you.

In 1973, their official franchise was in Tokyo, but no game there. Their semi-franchise was in Sendai, and they played there. In 1974, they moved to there officially.

Their official franchise in Kawasaki was 1978 to 1991.
