Feel the Roar: Japan's Baseball Cheers
Japanese baseball cheering (ouen) is highly organized. Fans in the outfield stands, led by an 'ouendan' (cheering squad), perform synchronized chants, songs, and dances for each player, creating an incredible and unified atmosphere.
Kyūjō de, ōendan wa ōkii koe de senshu o ōen shimasu.
At the stadium, the cheering squad cheers for the players with loud voices.
2026-nen no shīzun-chū, fan wa toranpetto no oto ni awasete, chikarazuyoku senshu no namae o sakebinagara ōenka o utaimasu.
During the 2026 season, fans sing cheer songs in time with the sound of trumpets while powerfully shouting the players' names.
2026-nen no puro yakyū shīzun de wa, kaku kyūdan no ōendan ga ittai to natte hibikaseru dokutoku no ōen sutairu ga, senshu-tachi no shiki o takame, shiai no nagare o sayū suru koto sae aru.
In the 2026 pro baseball season, the unique cheering style, where each team's cheering squad resounds in unison, raises the players' morale and can even influence the flow of the game.
