My 6th baseball game in 8th days was a little different. College baseball in Japan is more similar to college football in the U.S than MLB. Before and after the game, both teams bow to one another. The student section stands and sings the entire game. Prior to the game, each side will sing for a while, then graciously thank the opposing team`s fans for showing up. At which time the opposing teams fans will acknowledge the gesture with some golf clapping.
Besides the student section, no one stands during the game at any time. No one brings mitts, and if a foul ball comes, most people duck and cover rather than trying to catch it. Not real sure of the logic on that one.
