Both teams are blocked from watching in Japan, as they should be anywhere in the world.
I'm kidding, of course. But a guy can hope!
It is a struggle to watch foreign *anything* in Japan; even online it gets blocked unless you have a VPN or something set up that allows you to watch US-based sports shows. There are some cable channels I hear that show some sports; but it's selective.
One option is to find a friend in the US to record the stuff you want to watch and work out a way to get that file/stream. I've known people who have done that; Slingbox used to allow this, so you might look into that.
