On Sunday night, I got a call out of the blue from my friend Tomoki, who invited me to the Tokyo Giants<\/a> baseball game on Monday night. They were playing the ORIX Buffaloes<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Approximately a year ago, I took Tomoki to a Giants game when my friend Tai gave me a pair of tickets since he couldn’t use them. He’s a lawyer and their firm represents the Giants sometimes, so they get tickets every once in a while. Now, I’m not much of a baseball fan, I wouldn’t really watch it on TV, but when I do go to a game with friends, I always have a great time. It is fun to watch live, and especially fun when you’ve got friends around and people are into it. <\/p>\n

This game was no exception. I don’t know much about the Giants, but Tomoki told me that Ogasawara <\/a> is one of their best players, so we bought some Ogasawara shirts and headed to the stands. And boy, he did not disappoint. He had a homer in the first inning, and then later hit another with two men on base, and finished up the night with a final third homer. That was the first time that he has hit three homers in his career. Amazing game to see if you only see one game a year. The Giants won 8-2, even though they lost to the same team the night before! I really don’t understand much about baseball, but what a swing!<\/p>\n

Tokyo Giants: also recommended. Interestingly, it is only about a fifteen minute walk from where I work (NII<\/a>) to the Tokyo Dome. <\/p>\n
