The Orix Buffaloes (I knew them as the Blue Wave!) made it the the Japan Series (like USA’s World Series) with a great effort from Okinawan pitcher Miyagi Hiroya (#13) and winning the Pacific League Climax Series versus the Lotte Marines. They go on to challenge Hanshin Tigers.
By the way, the Orix Buffaloes has quite a few players from Okinawa and 22-year-old 2nd baseman Gibo Sho (#53) can also be found on the starting line-up! Seibu Lions is another team with a lot of Okinawans. Let’s cheer for Miyagi and the Orix Buffaloes! 📣
