Hi there,
You are in luck. From the 14th to the 16th there is 3 game series between bitter rivals the Yomiuri Giants (Tokyo/East Tokyo ) and the Hanshin Tigers (Osaka).
Any series between both teams is always very popular and crowds will be very loud and cheerful. It is a certainty that it will have the best atmosphere in terms of crowd chants, noise and excitement.
You will need to email Bob (at JapanBall) as soon as possible if you want tickets to either night.

Alternatively, you will enjoy any game you attend:
The Yakult Swallows (Tokyo/West Tokyo) do a fun umbrella dance during the 7th inning strech with which the crowd participates. Their home stadium is also a very nice open air historical stadium which I find better than the Tokyo Dome.

You can watch also Carp game whilst in Hiroshima. They also do an amazing 7th inning strech crowd participation activity in which the crowd blow up pink coloured balloons and release them after singing their team song.
