It was quite a show at the Rakuten Eagle Fan Festival 2015, where players from the Japanese professional baseball team dressed as female look-alikes drew the most laughs and smiles from the audience.
On November 23, the Rakuten Eagles held their annual Fan Festival at Kobo Stadium Miyagi in Sendai. Eagle fans braved the cold and rainy weather to watch the team dance to “R.Y.U.S.E.I.” by J Soul Brothers, play tug-of-war with children, and cast their vote for the prettiest cross-dressing player in the Rakuten Eagles Girls’ Contest.
Seven team members participated in the contest, offering embarrassed grins or fan service after their identities were revealed. Can you guess who is who?

So, how many did you get right?
Fans voted Karashima the prettiest woman, while announcers chose Tomura and Otsuka as the least beautiful. As a prize, Karashima was given his makeover wig to take home, which he reluctantly accepted.
When asked what he would do with the wig, Karashima answered that he’d decorate his entryway with it and wear it to future games.
