About
From 2016 to 2018, the Hiroshima Toyo Carp achieved the club's first-ever three consecutive Central League championships under manager Koichi Ogata. Armed with overwhelming offensive power and mobility, they dominated the Central League, becoming the first team other than the Giants to achieve this feat. The path to the three-peat and their records: 2016 (V7): The first league title in 25 years. A fusion of veterans like Hiroki Kuroda and Takahiro Arai with young talent. The phrase "Kamitteru" (God-like) became a buzzword. 2017 (V8): A consecutive title with overwhelming strength. The magic number "33" was lit on August 8th, the fastest in club history. 2018 (V9): On September 26th, they achieved the three-peat at their home, Mazda Stadium, for the first time in 27 years. Takahiro Arai retired at the end of this year. Key members who supported the golden era: The team featured homegrown position players centered around the "Tana-Kiku-Maru" trio (Tanaka, Kikuchi, Maru) and an array of overwhelming talent. Other members included... Ryuhei Matsuyama... Ryuji Ioka... Takayoshi Noma... Hiroki Kuroda... Yoshiyuki Ishihara... Shota Nakazaki... Aren Kuri... Kris Johnson... Yusuke Nomura... Takeru Imamura... Brad Eldred... Tomohiro Abe... Tsubasa Aizawa... Geronimo Franzua, and others.
