Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles
The home of the Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles in Sendai, this park carries deep emotional significance for the Tohoku region. When the Eagles won the 2013 Japan Series — their first championship and just their ninth year of existence — it was celebrated as a moment of healing for a region still recovering from the 2011 earthquake and tsunami.
