The Nippon Ham Fighters and SoftBank Hawks, two top teams in the Nippon Professional Baseball league, have recently celebrated their victories with a traditional champagne party. Celebrations were held at both teams' respective stadiums, attracting large crowds of fans eager to join in the celebratory atmosphere. The triumphant toasting symbolises the teams' hard-won victories and their gratitude toward their fans' unwavering support.

Baseball is one of the most popular sports in Japan, and such victories are considered a matter of national pride. The champagne celebrations are a cherished customary tradition within Japanese baseball, representing the culmination of a season's diligent work and struggle.

These postgame celebrations are much like the ones in the United States Major League Baseball, where players also often celebrate major victories with champagne showers in their locker rooms. The football leagues in Europe also have similar celebrations.
