Entry 5: Keio vs Waseda Baseball Game

Going in to June now and it's the rainy season in Japan. It's also starting to get more humid especially with all the rain so I'm switching to cooler clothes. The Keio and Waseda baseball game is a very famous game since they are rivals and Japan takes baseball very seriously. It was also my first time watching baseball in Japan and it was a cool experieence seeing how lively the atmosphere is and the different chants they have. Unfortunately it ended up being really windy and rainy so I decided to go home before it finished because I didn't want to catch a cold.

We got to watch each team perform their chant before the game and during the game there would be students in the crowd hyping everyone up. One of Keio's chants are so popular they even have it at Karaoke.

I had to leave early but unfortunately they lost 6-5 and but they have one more chance to stay in it if they can beat Waseda in the second match.
