The Asia Series is an international baseball tournament in East Asia that was first held between November 10 and November 13, 2005, in Tokyo. It was sponsored by Konami corporation until 2007, and hence was called Konami Cup until then.
It is played among the annual champions of the Nippon Professional Baseball's Japan Series, the Korea Baseball Organization's Korean Series, the Chinese Professional Baseball League's Taiwan Series, and the China Baseball League's championship series. Prior to 2008, China Stars, an all-star team of China Baseball League participated in the series instead of the champion from China.
