Mizuno Japan NPB Hanshin Tigers Hiroki Uemoto Baseball Knit Jersey Black #4

This is a genuine, retro Mizuno Hiroki Uemoto Hanshin Tigers baseball home jersey #4 from Japan. The Hanshin Tigers officially license this apparel.

Uemoto's journey with the Hanshin Tigers began in 2011 when the team drafted him in the first round. He quickly made his mark with his outstanding defensive abilities, agile fielding, and strong throwing arm. As a second baseman and shortstop, Uemoto displays exceptional range and the ability to turn double plays with precision.

His offensive prowess is equally impressive. Uemoto is known for his disciplined approach at the plate, displaying a keen eye for pitches and consistently making contact. With his smooth swing and power, he can drive the ball to all parts of the field, making him a formidable presence in the Tigers' lineup.

The Tigers have won five Japan Series championships (1954, 1955, 1962, 1965, and 2003) and 11 Central League pennants. They are one of the most popular teams in Japan, and their fans are known for being rowdy and passionate.

Several notable Japanese players from the Hanshin Tigers, such as Shintaro Fujinami, Kenji Johjima, Tsuyoshi Shinjo, Keichi Yabu, Kei Igawa, and Kyuji Fujikawa, have successfully transitioned to Major League Baseball (MLB), leaving an indelible mark on both leagues.
