タイトル「プロ野球は市民の精神に影響するのか？」

Yes, this suggestion is supportable.
One reason makes this opinion acceptable.

私たちの街にはプロスポーツの団体が複数ある。バレーボールやバスケットボールやサッカーや野球などである。たくさんの市民が彼らの勝ち負けに一喜一憂する。
Our city in Hiroshima has several kinds of professional sports organizations : volleyball, basketball, football, baseball and so on.
Most of the citizens are delighted or excited when our favorite team win, on the other hand, we feel ashamed or disappointed when they lose or draw.

それらの中で野球は最もサポーターが多い。戦後の廃墟からスタートした球団は歴史も長い。また経済的な困窮から多くの市民が募金した経緯もある。
Hiroshima Carp has the largest number of supporters of the four organizations, which started from the remains after the war and has a long history.
There is a heartwarming story that numerous citizens donated what little money they had in order to rescue their favorite team from its economic critical situation.

カープは1975年に初優勝して以来、リーグを９回ほど制覇している。数年前は３連覇した。その頃は「カープ女子」という言葉が流行し、人気に拍車をかけた。
Hiroshima Carp has won nine championships in the Central League since 1975, when it was the first time for them to become a victorious team.
They became a champion team three years in a row several years ago, when the phrase “Carp Girls” was in fashion, which made positive contributions to their popularity and Hiroshima citizens’ excitement.

ここ最近のカープはずっと首位にいる。投手を含めた守り中心の野球が功を奏している。疲労の蓄積している選手を連続出場させないマネジメントもしっかりしている。
Our favorite team have been in the leading position in recent days, which fails to make their supporters irritated or disappointed.
Their strength is that field players can prevent their rival team from getting scores including a pitcher, and don’t lose the seesaw match.
A exhausted player cannot be allowed to join the match continuously, which makes us safely say that a considerate management of players functions well.

首脳陣は選手の失敗を責めない。そして彼らは能力を存分に発揮する。パワハラとは真反対の姿勢だ。組織の中で上に立つ者なら参考になる運営とも言える。
No leaders accuse their players of their intentionless mistakes, which never fail to enable them to perform well in the next match.
In short, such an attitude toward a subordinate must be far from a power harassment, which could be a positive standard a supervisor should have in his or her mind.

This reason makes the question titled above favorable.
