The 16 members of the Tokyo Kitasuna Little League Team, the Champion of the 2001 Little League World Series paid a courtesy call on Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi at the Prime Minister's Official Residence. The Tokyo Kitasuna Little League team won the Little League World Series, the premier event of junior baseball, which was held in Pennsylvania State in the United States. The Prime Minister shook hands with each player, congratulated them and gave them each a signed baseball. A relaxing time was had by all, as the Prime Minister played catch-ball with one of the team. |
