Hanshin hasn’t had a championship home run since their last-place finish in 1986.
In the 2023 professional baseball season, Giants infielder Kazuma Okamoto will have 41 hits in the Central League, Softbank’s Kensuke Kondo, Rakuten infielder Hideto Asamura and Lotte’s Gregory Polanco will have 41 hits in the Pacific League. the home run champion with 26 hits. Polanco is the franchise’s first home run leader in 37 years since 1986. Until now, among the 12 teams, Lotte and Hanshin were the furthest from winning the title, but now Hanshin has become the worst team.

In 1986, Lotte infielder Hiromitsu Ochiai, who hit 50 runs, won the Triple Crown for the second straight year with a .360 batting average and 116 RBI, and until then was the team’s last home run champion . Meanwhile, Hanshin infielder Randy Barth won the Triple Crown the same season with a .389 batting average, 47 home runs and 109 RBI. Hanshin has not had a home ranking since he has been the strongest helper.
The “unlucky” one was infielder Craig Brazell in 2010, who hit 47 home runs on the season, but was countered by Giants outfielder Alex Ramirez, who hit 49 home runs. By the way, Orix outfielder T-Okada hit the most home runs in the Pacific League with 33.
Last season, Hanshin became number one in Japan for the first time in 38 years. Perhaps because his home base is the spacious Koshien Stadium, he is the “unknown” home run king. After Brazell, infielder Yusuke Oyama’s 28 in 2020 were the best on the team. Last year, infielder Teruaki Sato had the most hits with 24.
