#23 Trevor Raichura - Word Hunters

Trevor Raichura describes himself as a university lecturer by day, and one of Kansai’s biggest Hanshin Tigers fans by night. He hails from Canada but has been in Japan for nearly half his life. He lives in Nishinomiya, Japan with his wife and two sons. His obsession with the Tigers has drawn attention from local newspapers and television, and has helped establish him as one of the English-speaking experts on Japanese baseball.
