The Chunichi Dragons
It is my favorite baseball team. Dragons’ home is Aichi.There is nearly Shizuoka.
So, I like that. They won the Japan Series to take their first championship in 53 years. That time, I watched this game. I was very impressed. I was excited!!! Next year, I believe that Dragons win Japan Series...
