Description: The Carp have one of the most heartwarming and gritty origin stories in baseball. They were founded shortly after World War II, during the rebuilding of Hiroshima, and were funded by donations from the local citizens. For real, they were basically a crowdfunded team before crowdfunding was even a thing. 😭❤️ They had to fight for survival in their early years, but that struggle helped forge the identity of the team: underdogs with unshakable grit.
Description: The Carp were founded in 1949, four years after the atomic bombing of Hiroshima. The team struggled to find success in their early years and faced serious financial issues, but narrowly escaped merger and contraction plans through the fundraising of Hiroshima citizens and fans.
