Yusei Kikuchi has garnered significant fan support during his tenure with the Toronto Blue Jays. Now, he's gaining even more popularity among his teammates thanks to a new winning tradition involving alcohol.
Recently, following each victorious outing by Kikuchi on the mound for the Blue Jays, he indulges in Yamazaki, a Japanese whisky, and extends an invitation to his teammates to partake in the post-game ritual. And this particular alcohol comes with a hefty price tag.
The most affordable option from this Japanese distillery, a 12-year-old edition, is priced at $373.60 at your local liquor store.
«The bottle is a little expensive, but I don't mind buying, and hopefully, a few more wins come our way so I can keep buying.»
says KikuchiIndulging in expensive whisky provided by Yusei Kikuchi after victories may serve as a potent incentive for the Toronto Blue Jays squad to secure more wins. Beyond the celebration itself, this luxurious post-game tradition fosters a sense of camaraderie among teammates, reinforcing their bond both on and off the field.

Up to this point in the season, Kikuchi has had the opportunity to celebrate twice, both times after Toronto defeated the New York Yankees on occasions where he pitched.
Whiskey connoisseurs hope that this trend of victories persists, as it could establish fine whisky as a symbol of the Blue Jays' winning culture.
