How Good Was Hideo Nomo Actually? 

He reached 400 strikeouts faster than Ohtani

I remember sitting by a guy at Comerica Park during Nomo’s time in Detroit. This guy was complaining that Nomo was only throwing 75-80mph. He obviously never saw Nomo throw a splitter before.

He was my favorite pitcher to watch when i was young

Nomo had a great career. Not hall of fame by any means, but 2 no hitters, 2 strikeout titles, each feat in both leagues, and a rookie of the year, including the first no hitter at Coors. Most of all, he opened the door to Japanese players. He definitely qualifies as a legend.

Great video. Amazing that he topped Koufax #'s. 4:23.

4:23 Sandy got several shades darker FAST!

Vin Scully = Legend Nice to see him on here

HIs delivery looked so amazing..

You've got the Koufax and Martinez backwards in relation to the photos. 🙄

The video of Nolan Ryan I'm pretty sure it Mookie Wilson lol

He could've been a Hall of Famer. I think that radio show prank that was played in Miami ruined his career.

Nomo is the Jackie Robinsion for Asians!

that was a really funny picture of Mookie Wilson as Nolan Ryan... Nolan Ryan never won the Cy Young, but he has to be the greatest pitcher of all-time, for his longevity, strength, and strikeouts. a living legend.

Koufax and Martinez are mixed up!!! Otherwise great video😂

He was great until batters picked up on his wind-up

Pusha T and whale 😂

Pusha T and Whale? It's WA-LAY lol

Nolan Ryan es la única máquina de strikeout

Growing up in Korea, I loved npb players. Meanwhile chan ho park giving up two grand slams same inning tatis 😂

The Japanese pronunciation in this video was just horrid, dude even pronounced J like a spanish H sound

I remember being PEEVED at the Cubs for getting Nomo in their minor league system and then trading him. As a fan, it made ZERO sense at the time.

Is there only one haircut option in Japan?
