Buehrle>Wood Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 Awesome article. I liked his press conference the best: "How is everybody? How are you doing?" Johjima asked the assembled crowd. "Thank you for coming today. My name is Kenji Johjima, from Sasebo, Japan. I am very happy to sign with Mariners. I like Seattle city and Safeco Field. I love baseball. I want to succeed in the big leagues. Thank you." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
