The Biggest Baseball Stars in Japan

In 18 71, a main farmer from the state of man and civil war veteran named horace wilson headed to japan. This was during the maji era. A new modern emperor was on the throne, and had decided, in defiance of centuries of japanese tradition, to opened the country to new ideas and progress. They've got these muskets, which are also powerful baseball bats. And exactly for this reason, like, these ideas are very powerful. So my impression, just from tooling around hakaido, for we can see otani's face everywhere, is that their baseball stars, there are maybe bigger celebrities than our biggest baseball stars here.
