OSAKA — A sale commemorating for the Hanshin Tigers’ Central League title win began Monday at Hanshin department store’s Umeda main store in Kita Ward, Osaka.

A ceremony was held in front of the store prior to opening. After the team anthem “Rokko Oroshi” was performed, a ceremonial ball was broken. Due to the large crowd that had formed early in the morning, the store opened at 9:30 a.m., 30 minutes earlier than usual.

Fans crowded into the store to purchase items featuring the logo commemorating the baseball team’s first league title in two years, as well as special-priced goods.
