The story of the Vancouver Asahi shows how important sports can be to a community and how they can create lifelong bonds throughout the most unlikely circumstances. And that when it comes to baseball, it’s not your background or ethnicity that matters. All that matters is how well you play. We at the CBHFM hope that this virtual exhibition honours those incredible baseball players who helped make history as a part of the Vancouver Asahi.
