I'm not even a fan of the Naruto franchise, and yet...

Quote:
On July 26, the character of Naruto will make an appearance on the field, and he will help announce and cheer on the players during the game.


...my inner fan-geek finds this kinda awesome. It's no crazier than other on-field mascots, and is actually cooler. In fact, should the Japanese league ever expand in the near future, a new team calling themselves the Ninjas would be pretty sweet, especially given "said" mascot, which could very well be Naruto himself if Shonen Jump were to own this team. Why not?...another way for SJ to get their name and product in front of the public eye, generate _even_ _more_ sales, etc...

And now my secret, obscure liking for girls in baseball uniforms is hoping we'll see pictures of Sakura, Hinata, or Ino in baseball outfits. Cool
