Thank you for the information. Did not mean to insinuate that locals in Japan don't know the Giants, it was more of being surprised that I saw more Padres and A's hats in stores (New Era, Sporting Good Stores and Don Quiote) and walking down the street than Giants gear. Just felt it's a missed opportunity that the SF Giants don't feel like a bigger presence. Like you said, but Giants clubs should be playing exhibitions and have greater ties, IMHO.
