gotoh00 Posted April 13, 2005 Author Share Posted April 13, 2005 QUOTE(qwerty @ Apr 13, 2005 -> 01:55 AM) Masahiro kawai. Man...how long you been studying Japanese baseball? I was so looking forward to seeing a lot of guys guess aimlessly too. Yup, it's Japan's Ozzie Smith: Masahiro Kawai. Great guy too, is now in Cooperstown right next to Sugiyama Naoki, a backup catcher who was really good a making it look like he tagged a guy out as he was crossing homeplate. That was until he was arrested for slapping a girl with his boot in a bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was supposedly one of the slickest fielding players in the history of japan and could bunt like no other ( except eddie collins who was just behind him i believe).

We wasn't that slick of a fielder but made his living sacrafice bunting. The only official "pinch bunter" in history. He could get a perfect bunt down even when the opposition knew it was coming.

Anyway didn't he stick around just to break the record? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
