Baseball

We attended a Japanese baseball game - the Tokyo Swallows versus the Yokohama Baystars. It was a late night, but Adam (and the rest of us) had a great time.

Daddy, Bapa, and Adam at the start of the game.

Lottie watches the game too. All the seats in our section were general admission; you get to pick your seat. We were pretty close to the field, just not close to the infield. Not bad for $15.


During a break, the fans all broke out umbrellas and danced and sang. We still don't know. Some sort of Japanese 7th inning stretch (not during the 7th inning)?












The "special" fan section cheered and sang the entire game. They had specific cheers and songs - everyone was together. Very Japanese. The Swallows had a cheer that Adam is still saying, weeks later. Go, go Swallows!
