The other day I spoke about how baseball in the Orient has cheers and cheerleaders. You can read it here.
Early yesterday morning I was watching the World Baseball Classic. It was Korea against Japan from the Tokyo Dome in, uh, Tokyo. It's quite the treat to watch live baseball at five in the morning, I tell you what.
The cheers from the Japanese crowd were being translated in the television booth for the play by play guys, and they were very creative and distinctly Japanese. I liked them. One was: "Make history! Engrave your name on the Field of Dreams." It's no exaggeration to say that gave me chills.
I am going to have to look up more baseball cheers.
