White Bears

The White Bears are one of two baseball teams in the Game Boy version of Baseball, with their opponent team being the Red Eagles. The White Bears appear in both the USA mode and the Japan mode, just with different team members in each mode. By default, the White Bears are always the first to bat. Due to the small size of the Game Boy screen, their in-game name is shortened to W-BEARS.

Trivia

 * The game includes a character named "Yoshi" that plays for the White Bears in the Japanese mode. Baseball was released a year before Yoshi's very first appearance in the Japanese release of Super Mario World, and thus the connection is merely coincidental. In real life, Yoshi is a name in the Japanese language that can be a first name, a last name or a commonly used shortened nickname for a longer name.
