Yokohama ¨C The Yokohama DeNA BayStars have become one of Nippon Professional Baseball¡¯s fastest-growing clubs over the last decade, and they have no plan to slow down anytime soon.
The 2021 season will mark the Central League team¡¯s 10th anniversary since DeNA took over as its owner, and the BayStars are motivated to continue the growth of its fan base.
¡°We¡¯ve gone through so many different things in the past 10 years,¡± BayStars president Shingo Okamura said Tuesday during a news conference at a Yokohama hotel. ¡°Our team has grown year in and year out and advanced to the Climax Series and Japan Series. Unfortunately, we haven¡¯t accomplished a (Japan Series) championship yet, but we have become a team that generates higher expectations.¡±
