Hiroshima Becomes Champion

Japanese professional baseball team Hiroshima Carp has won the 2016 Central League championship for the first time in 25 years. The last victory was in 1991, so the fans were waiting for the triumph long lond years. 

When I was a middle and high school student, Carp was reall strong. But after free agent system was introduced, Carp lost many good players by the system. 

The winning game took place at Tokyo Dome against Tokyo Giamts. Even so, the stand was filled with Carp red uniforms as at Mazda Studiam in Hiroshima.

Women's World Cup

FIFA Women's World Cup has been held in Canada. Defending champion Japan has advanced to the round of 16. The next match is against Netherlands on 23th June at 19:00 local time. 

The game would be tough, but I believe Japanese team would win the match.
