VIDEO: Japanese Baseball Includes Awesome Cheering And Beer Girls

National Geographic’s Andrew Evans who you can follow on twitter @WheresAndrew documents his journey to Japan and his visit to the Saitawa Seibug Lions vs Tohoko Rakuten Golden Eagles baseball game. It’s pretty cool. Evans does a great job of highlighting the similarities of the Japanese baseball fan experience to that of the American version and shows how baseball helps as a moral boost following the devastating earthquake earlier this year. There are some great clips of the awesome cheers that go on during each game as well as a look at the beer girls who go around the stadium with a keg of beer on their back.
