EDIT: It appears that SNSD may not be making an appearance at the “Korean Day” baseball event in Osaka, Japan after all. Although contrary to what was previously reported, S.M. Entertainment expressed via Star News on March 10th, that:
We have not received any request from Oryx’s side regarding SNSD’s participation in the match which involves pitching and batting the first ball of the match, etc.
Looks like Oryx Buffaloes player’s Park Chan-Ho and Lee Seung-Yeop will not have their wishes fulfilled 😦

…Because So Nyuh Shi Dae will be there!
Back in December of last year, it was reported that members of one of Japan’s professional baseball teams, the Orix Buffaloes, had shown a desire for SNSD to throw the opening pitch at one of their games. They even went as far as sending out invites to official SNSD channels, in order to get the girls’ to make an appearance. Well it looks like their wishes have been granted, as SNSD will attend the “Korean Day” event match on the 23rd of April, in Osaka, Japan.
Not only popular amongst the South Korean players of the team (Park Chan-Ho and Lee Seung-Yeop) but the Japanese players as well; SNSD’s appearance is also expected to draw a large number of spectators, as they will be singing the national anthem and pitching/batting the first ball of the game.
The girl’s are no strangers to baseball, so lets finish off with an SNSD+Baseball picture spam:
I have to say, the NINE of them would’ve made one hell of a baseball team!

SNSD Korean 
Cool. I always wanted to see their fantastic pitches again!
Who will sing this time round? I liked Taeng’s no-vibrato version last time. I heard it was the correct way to sing the Aegukga.
Is it the Korean or Japanese national anthem? Because I don’t think it will be rather appropriate for them to sing the Japanese one….
Pretty sure it will be the Korean anthem, it is a Korean Day event 🙂
Man, they’re are gonna be a great pitcher/batter… ^-^ As Tiffany always say : LETS GO SOSHI LETS GO!!!
keke i’m pretty sure the other team is sooo jealous!!! they will be enthralled by the beauty of our nine girls, and the Orix buffaloes will have the perfect motivation ^~^… and about them being a baseball team SO RIGHT!! yoo wouldn’t be able to bat properly because you’re looking at ANGELS, you’d be too focused their absolute bliss!
Korean day in japan? Hmm….I kinda confuse about it…..
I like yoona pose very much! N yuri is like a professional thrower! (I watched the related video)
SNSD, fighting!^^
LUCKY GUYS 😀 😀 😀 !!!! You can be sure the game attendance on that day will be double or triple the normally recorded numbers at the stadium 😉 😀 !!! Mmmm…. perhaps if we “pester” (sic) SME enough, they might “agree” to the girls staging a concert in Singapore 😀 😀 😀 !!! As for the 9 ladies forming a baseball team, their “angelic” countenance will most probably ensure a “walk-over” for every game that they will play in; the opposing team(s) will be too “enraptured” with their beauty to be even interested in trying to beat them 😉 !
I don’t think that SME would respond to “we” if we were to pester SME to hold a concert (preferably ITNW, might attend for the experience itself) in Singapore, since the both of us are rather unknown and insignificant individuals and not a widely acknowledged group known globally, kind of unfortunate. I mean, majority SONEs’ in a few countries in the SEA region are petitioning for SNSD to come to their country and perform, so there’s competition. It might mean a lot to us, but to SNSD, despite knowing that the importance and the immesureable amount of love they’ll receive, the concerts may mean less in terms of overall value when you start to answer to and perform something too much from their perspective, it doesn’t feel as special as it would due to a higher frequency. Kind of what RagingXL said in a previous comment regarding the “SMTown concert in Tokyo” post about market and revenue, but I never dwell too much on economics as much, so my knowledge is quite rudimentary because I’m not in tertiary education yet, to say the least.
What I say doesn’t mean that they won’t come at all, I’m looking forward to them arriving and peforming for Singaporean SONEs. However, they’re currently occupied with other pressing matters at hand like physical promotional activities and the time they require for rest. I think that even then, booking has to be done probably months in advance. Not to mention, SME is a company which doesn’t entirely have altruistic principles ingrained into it’s work ethic(s), so if a country with a higher potential for revenue and stellar statistics presents itself, SME will bank on that first before tending to Singapore, since we’re a relatively small country in the eyes of the world. To ne honest, either that way or the other, I don’t really know.
Nevertheless, they’ll eventually come one day, even though it sounds clinche and has been repeated umpteenth times, it really is that simple, when you think about it. It’s only a matter of time though. In the meantime, we could occupy ourselves with anything of interest before the moment we’ve been all waiting for. =D
Jaded, that’s what I mean.
They look fit & athletic..
agh baseball sucks
9 Girls, 1 Generation – Greatest Hits! – Out April 23rd 2011
Wow! rumors make me laugh 😛 still be good if it happens to be true but probably wont!
Has anyone notice that there are only 8 girls in the main photo!
i remember seeing a clip of Yuri throwing the first pitch for Doosan Bears a few years ago, and she looks like a pro. she actually pitch it like she’s a softball pitcher!
Can someone explain to me what the “Korean Day” match event is about? I’m not sure if they mean Korean teams will come out to play or what not; or if SNSD is cheering for the Buffaloes or for the Korean team that will be there(if there is one there). If anyone can answer, thank you!
vote taeng for the best leader :

They should make my wish come true!! 😀 (Come to the East Coast of America! Hopefully D.C! :D)
I must say, they look so cute/sexy in those baseball uniforms! ;D
please make yuri do the pitch this time…out of all the members, i think yuri did the best like a pro player like she did back in 2007&2009…
the 9 of them could take out the entire MLB
Wish I were there… Nice pics!
Oh well, so be it then.
So now do you know that actually our girls can play sports too?!! THEY CAN!! from what I see I believe Yuri can play the best softball! she looks so professional! how I wish she could come to my school to do some commercial for softball during the CCA open house!! I think Yoona too!! I believe that she can play softball very well also!!
Too Bad 😦 !!! I’m sure the most disappointed persons will be the 2 baseball players ;).
It’s Orix’ lost…nothing to fret about, the girls have the BUSIEST schedules anyways 🙂
