Come join us for a Japanese Baseball Game Experience as we watch the Hanshin Tigers play, of the Nippon Professional Baseball League, at Koshien Stadium. Watching baseball in Japan is an absolute must even if you're not necessarily a fan of the sport itself. The atmosphere with the crowd cheering, chanting and singing combined with the fascinating food options and additional entertainment make it an experience you'll never forget.
ジャポンで初めて野球の試合を見て楽しかったです。甲子園球場で日本プロ野球リーグの阪神タイガースを見ました。野球の試合、ファンのお祝いの雰囲気、おいしい日本食やビールを本当に楽しんだ。私たちは野球のチケットがあまりにも高価ではなく、エンターテインメントレベルが非常に高いことを発見しました。日本では野球の試合を観て、野球の試合を見てみるために日本を訪問することを勧めます。

Japanese Baseball Game Experience Video Transcript:
One thing we had to do in Japan, is experience a Japanese baseball game.
As a spectator, baseball in Japan is different - very, very different and in this video we’re going to show you a few reasons why!
TEAM SPIRIT
If you’re going to support your team, you have to look the part. I picked up a Hanshin Tigers hat, but there were far more dedicated fans with really clever outfits.
(Anthem playing)
Woah! We're just about to start.
(Fans cheering and music playing)
FOOD
Next up, food. Forget popcorn and hot dogs! Japanese baseball games offer an extensive food selection at great prices. It’s good to arrive hungry!
Guys check out all of the different unique things you can get here at a Japanese baseball game. There is an extensive menu. We've got sushi, we have fried noodles, we have octopus balls. A bit unusual but very tasty.
So we got some snacks for the game. Yes. We got pizza. This is teriyaki pizza guys. Oh. And over here this one was really funny looking if I can get it open. Check out that. A hotdog pizza. Yeah. It has got a hot dog and tomatoes. Yeah.
How is that pizza? It is pretty good. I'm so hungry. Wow.
So tell us what have you found now? So moving on to round 2 of dessert. I have found a chocolate churros. Yes. And inside of that is an ice cream. There is whipping cream and this is uh basically a pancake. Like a crepe. A stuffed dessert. Stuffed pancake. Wow.
Only at a Japanese Baseball Game. Indeed.
BEER
If you want to buy beer, you wave down the ‘uriko’, which are the women who carry beer kegs on their backs. The beer at the games is surprisingly affordable too.
CHEER
When it comes to Japanese baseball (野球), something fascinating is that each player has their own unique song and the crowds will sing and dance when they’re up to bat.
(Cheering and music)
PLAY
Even if you’re not a baseball fan, it’s worth attending a Japanese baseball game for the atmosphere. The game is exciting, but the crowd’s energy steals the show. Fun fact: games can end in a tie.
That baseball game was a lot of fun. If you come to Japan you definitely have to go to a Japanese Baseball Game.
This is part of our Travel in Japan video series showcasing Japanese food, Japanese culture and Japanese cuisine.
