Japanese term or phrase: アジア日本一
スポーツの世界では、７４年以来３１年ぶりにプロ野球日本一を達成したロッテの見事な戦いぶりには感動を覚えました。アジア日本一にもなりバレンタイン監督の「乗せて育てるプラス思考」の管理手法には多くの学ぶべきモノがありました。

Would it be correct to say "won the Asia-Japan title"?

Thanks.

"2005 Asia Series and Japan Series Champions" could be explicit.
Explanation:
Chiba Lotte Marines won both Asia and Japan championships. The term "アジア日本一" should read アジア一 (ichi) and 日本一.

I thought it was best to be specific in this case since the author was referring to specific events that occurred in 2005. Snowbees' link also helped a lot.

Thanks, everyone.
