I was looking for this! I was in Rakuten Eagles stadium on June 1, 2024 (my very first time of watching baseball game at stadium in my 36 years of entire life), and I was amazed with this team's cheering spirit. Asamura-san's song astonished me, and whenever his turn came, I learned a lyric by the end of the game. 8-2, beating Yakult Swallows, wow. Funny that I'm from San Francisco, but I've never been to my local team's game because after SF Giants won 2010, 12, & 14 WS titles.... our city became end of dynasty and now sucks. Didn't want to spend $40+ just to watch games...... In Japan, however, wow, so many services. So many delicious foods and drinks in reasonable prices. Great shows and facilities. But most importantly, the fans are so organized to actually cheer in unison. Amazing. No wonder Japanese baseballs are now way more interesting to watch than ego-rich American teams. BTW, congratulation for WBC 2023! Japan definitely deserved the title with 7-0!
