Orix The Buffaloes mascot “Buffalo Bull”

Mascots of professional baseball teams liven up ball park with energy. We will introduce the mascots of the six teams in Pacific League who will be active in the 2025 season.

The official mascot of Orix The Buffaloes is the “Buffalo Bull.” He is the kind older brother of “Buffalo Bell.” number is “111.” The name “Bull” comes from the color of his eyes, the “blue,” and the meaning of “bull,” as well as the desire for “hot battles and win that make the fans tremble with excitement.”

This time, we asked Bull-kun to answer a questionnaire. We will get closer to Bull-kun’s personality in a question and answer format.

If you want to see Bull-kun, head to Kyocera Dome Osaka! Before the game, the “BsStage Mascot Show” is held mainly on weekends. He also appears during the game at Harisen Time and Lucky 7. After the game, Bull-kun and Bell-chan will greet the fans who supported them until the very end. Why not wave from the audience?

The official X, written in Kansai dialect, is also full of Bull-kun’s charm. Even if you can’t make it to Osaka, you can follow it and enjoy it.
