History: Japan's second-largest city is home to one of its oldest professional baseball franchises: the Osaka Tigers, who first took the field in 1936. Their park, Koshien Field, is the oldest in Japan and is considered sacred ground by players and fans. There is also a statue of Babe Ruth outside the ballpark to commemorate the Bambino's 1934 visit to Osaka.
This classic ballcap, cut and sewn from sturdy cotton twill and finished with a felt graphic and brass eyelets, pays homage to the Osaka Tigers.
