Japanese Baseball

Game winning hit and field charging celebration during a baseball game in Yokohama, Japan only 3 weeks after their 2011 tsunami and earthquakes! There was an earthquake during the 3rd inning, all the players simply sat on the field and waited it out as the stadium lights and building swayed! Japanese baseball is amazing! The fans remain enthusiastic throughout the entire game, with countless chants and cheers. Each half inning, all of the fans for each team stand the entire time, cheering and chanting very specific sayings. Each player has their own chant! They never let up! When their team makes the 3rd out, they immediately sit down to show respect to the other team, and the other team's fans do the same. Nothing like this in any sport in the US. Their culture is based on respect....nothing like it!
