Hey everyone!

This is a video I have been planning for many months and I’m finally able to share it with you. The black mist scandal is the biggest baseball scandal in Japanese history. This is a story that involves gangs, bribery, and much more. How does it compare to the Astros and Black Sox scandals? That’s for you to decide.
