The meeting between World Series champions
Koji Uehara,
Junichi Tazawa and US Ambassador to Japan
Caroline Kennedy took place Tuesday. Kennedy—the daughter of President John F. Kennedy and the inspiration for the Fenway anthem
'Sweet Caroline'—
posed with the 2103 World Series trophy. Said Kennedy,
"This is a great event. Last fall's victory would not have happened without these two players here tonight. You and your players — past and present — are ambassadors of goodwill to millions of fans here in Japan. Thank you for continuing the great legacy of baseball diplomacy between our two countries."
