Yomiuri Giants

This week, I am going to share Yomiuri Giants to you!
Yomiuri Giants belongs to Central League, and this team locates in Tokyo.
There are many Giants fans in Japan, and I have lived in Tokyo since I have graduated from high school, but  do not like this team because I love Hanshin Tigers that I will share next week. I think that most of Tigers fans include me do not like Giants because Tigers and Giants are eternal rival.

This team's base is Tokyo Dome, and I have been there many times, and I have been to watch Tigers vs Giants in Tokyo Dome this summer. Tokyo Dome is used as the event place.
This team's mascot characters are Giabbit, and I have took pictures with Giabbit.

I don't like Giants, but there are many good players in Giants. I think that Yoshinobu Takahashi 24 was a good player becasue he has announced his retirement from professional baseball this year to be Giants manager, so I was surprised when I heard the news becasue I thought that he could keep playing more. Most of people called him genius because he had how to get in good timing and high batting technique, so I liked him although I do not like Giants.

Giants chance theme song makes me excited because all Giants fans turn the towel when Giants is the chance. I felt togetherness when I have been to watch it.

  1. Oh I didn't know Japan had a team called the Giants kind of like the San Francisco Giants. Same goes with the Hanshin Tigers, similar to the Detroit Tigers. Very cool. Their mascot the Giabbit is a little intimidating haha. Looks like he is making an angry face. But man, would be cool to see Japan mascots against some of the US mascots in one of those funny races or something similar to that. That would be very entertaining!!!

  2. this is the only team I hate in NPB. They have a lot of money as compared to other teams. so they use it to get good players from other teams. I hope other teams will beat them next year.
