Could you imagine growing up a baseball fanatic in Japan, dreaming of going head to head with the best in the world across the ocean in the States? To further dream of not only playing MLB, but to play for an organization with REAL baseball history & heritage AND to not only play in the world series, but to FRIGGIN WIN IT ALL....?
Should I make it even crazier? In high school he was the backup pitcher, not even the main pitcher. And the school he went to wasn't that good in terms of baseball either.
It's about where he places the ball. His motion on the splitter is identical to his motion on the fastball so hitters can't see a difference until it's way too late. With perfect placement also, what is impossible almost becomes easy.
Japanese baseball league is the closest to a real competing major league. Major league would beat you most of the time but you would win a few times. Maybe NPB wins 3 games out of 10. Not many other leagues could even compete that well. If there was a true world series with multiple major leagues competing it would come down to a couple of the best NPB teams fighting for a little place in the sun with mostly MLB teams. But a good Japanese team could occasionally win.
@@hagamapama I guess it's gonna be like this. When MLB wins, it's a big win like 10-0. And when NPB wind, it's a close game like 4- 2. Total result would be MLB 6 - NPB 4. cause Japanese style small baseball is hard to lose so easily.
