Here at the CPBL Stats, we have an unhealthy obsession with food themed baseball uniform and weird ceremonial first pitch. So, a giant banana mascot throwing out the first pitch is exactly what we wished for.

Elite Banana Banao (Mr Banana)
On the night of September 20th, the Lamigo Monkeys invited Elite Banana Banao, a popular stationary brand character by Kamio Japan to toss out the first pitch. Mr Banana even stayed after the first pitch and watched the game in the VIP booth.
According to Kamio Japan, Elite Banana Banao is 30 years old, single. He stands 180cm tall and with the above average athletic ability.
