{"product_id":"5c5v-osaka-full-count-japanese-baseball-cap","title":"Osaka Strength 力 Full Count Japanese Baseball Cap – Black · Navy · Dark Grey","description":"\u003cp\u003eA Japanese scoreboard at full count with two out. S, B and O down the side, two yellow strike lamps, three green ball lamps and two red out lamps. OSAKA over 力 in white on the left side.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAmerican boards read B-S-O, balls first. For decades Japan's read S-B-O, strikes first, and the lamps were always yellow for strikes, green for balls and red for outs. Japan switched to the international order around 2010, so this is the old board, the one a generation of fans stared at with the count full and two out. Only people who know Japanese baseball will notice the order. That's the point. 力 (chikara) means strength, Osaka's virtue in Five Cities, Five Virtues.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's a classic dad-hat style baseball cap in 100% chino cotton twill, unstructured and low profile, so it sits close to the head and softens the more you wear it. The adjustable strap and antique buckle at the back mean one size fits most. Available in Black, Navy and Dark Grey. Made to order, and US orders are made in the US.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does it say S-B-O instead of B-S-O?\u003c\/strong\u003e Japanese scoreboards used to show strikes first, then balls, then outs. Around 2010 Japan's pro league switched calls and scoreboards to the international ball-strike order, so S-B-O is the old-school Japanese board.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is it an Osaka cap?\u003c\/strong\u003e 力 (chikara) means strength, Osaka's virtue in Five Cities, Five Virtues.
