OK, Opening Day was two days ago but I've been inspired by something
Night Owl Cards has been doing for the past ten years but I just saw for the first time the other day. He's been doing
a post each year that shows a baseball card from the last year each of the 30 MLB teams last won the World Series (well, make that 23 teams because seven MLB have still never won one). I saw that and thought to myself "What a great idea that I could totally steal for NPB!" So here we go with the NPB version:
The last time the
HAWKS won the Nippon Series, cards looked like this:
 |
2017 BBM 1st Version #046 |
The last time the
FIGHTERS won the Nippon Series, cards looked like this:
 |
2016 BBM 2nd Version #405 |
The last time the
EAGLES won the Nippon Series, cards looked like this:
 |
2013 BBM 1st Version #246 |
The last time the
GIANTS won the Nippon Series, cards looked like this:
 |
2012 Bandai Owners League 03 #100 |
The last time the MARINES won the Nippon Series, cards looked like this:
 |
2010 BBM 1st Version #378 |
The last time the
LIONS won the Nippon Series, cards looked like this:
 |
2008 BBM 2nd Version #694 |
The last time the
DRAGONS won the Nippon Series, cards looked like this:
 |
2007 BBM 1st Version #221 |
The last time the
SWALLOWS won the Nippon Series, cards looked like this:
 |
2001 Upper Deck #78 |
The last time the
BAYSTARS won the Nippon Series, cards looked like this:
 |
1998 Calbee #118 |
The last time the
BUFFALOES* won the Nippon Series, cards looked like this:
 |
1996 BBM #382 |
The last time the
TIGERS won the Nippon Series, cards looked like this:
 |
1985 Calbee #33 (Randy Bass) |
The last time the
CARP won the Nippon Series, cards looked like this:
 |
1984 Takara Carp #3 (Sachio Kinugasa) |
*The Buffaloes were called the BlueWave in 1996
All 12 current NPB teams have won the Series at least once so there are no "Photo Not Found" teams.

Wow ... that Shinnosuke Abe 2012 Bandai Owners League 03 #100 card is awesome. Since I am a SF Giants fan, the colors are very familiar.
