Japanese [[baseball]] team, based in Osaka and playing in the Central League of [[Nippon Professional Baseball]]. The team is one of the most popular in Japan along with the rival [[Yomiuri Giants]], and are often compared to the [[Boston Red Sox]] of [[Major League Baseball]] in terms of history and fan support. Infamously is the subject of the "Curse of the Colonel", where Tigers supporters throwing a statue of [[Colonel Sanders]] into a river after the team's 1985 Japan Series victory has been attributed to a two-decade long drought of the Tigers not winning the Central League championship and their current Japan Series drought. h4.See also * "Wikipedia article":https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanshin_Tigers Updated by bot Sun, Sep 18 '22, 02:57 |
