Made In Usa Sadaharu Oh Club Tie

DESCRIPTION
  • 3 1/4" width
  • Handsewn
  • 1977.
  • Tokyo.
  • A hush comes over the izakaya as the patrons look up from their beer glasses to the TV.
  • The air is heavy with yakitori smoke and anticipation.
  • The Yomiuri Giants are playing their crosstown rivals, the Yakult Swallows, and Sadaharu Oh marches up to the plate.
  • The camera cuts to the number one emblazoned on his back, as he hunches down to his trademark “flamingo” batting stance.
  • A quick swing of the bat and the Korakuen Stadium crowd comes to a roar.
  • The television speaker crackles as home run number 756 soars to the sky and passes Hank Aaron’s legendary record.
  • By the time the ball had left the field, it had lifted Sadaharu Oh to the status of a baseball god.
  • Incidentally, in Japanese, Oh translates to “king.”  A question still lingers of whether his ascension as king of baseball is sheer coincidence, or sign of a divine plan, but any question of his greatness ended that night.
