Solario is a life-long Giants fan originally from the San Francisco area, who now calls Honolulu, Hawaii home. He shares stories of growing up attending games at Candlestick Park, where freezing summer winds couldn’t keep him away from his beloved Giants. Now, a professional illustrator, Solario talks about how his love for baseball logos and uniforms played a big part in shaping his passion for design.
We also dive into his experiences with international baseball. He's never missed a World Baseball Classic and is a huge fan of Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB), having visited almost every stadium in Japan. We chat about what makes international baseball so special, from the energetic fan culture to the unique atmosphere in the stands.
Solario also shares his involvement in vintage baseball leagues while living in San Francisco, playing by 1800s rules in full vintage gear, and how he’s working on starting a similar league in Hawaii.
