Nothing against baseball, but I was way more interested in the crazy fans than the game.
Matsushima
From one of my boat tours through the bay. As much as I love Matsushima in the spring, the boat tours are best on summer evenings like this one. You can get drinks (beer, soda, http:// on the boat and watch the islands from the deck when the weather's nice.

Matsushima light up festival
The light up festival at one of Matsushima's temples in the fall. A bit expensive to go in so I almost skipped it, but it was stunning- definitely worth the money.
