You wanted this explaining so I thought I might as well.
For starters, they’re Korean, not Japanese. The second thing is that they’re playing a kids game known as chicken, where the aim is to hop around on one leg while trying to knock your opponent over and the person left standing is declared the winner. The batter in this clip is a bit of a joker when it comes to baseball and when he approaches the pitcher, he too decides to play along with the game.
Just to clarify, this isn’t some sort of baseball tradition, but just a kids game brought to some baseball players who are up for having a bit of fun in the process.
