Atsushi Nōmi

Look at the shape of this career: born in Hyogo, most of it spent with the Hanshin Tigers, the end of it with the Orix Buffaloes. He never left Kansai. A left-hander from the region pitched for the region's teams until he was finished, which is rarer in professional baseball than it sounds. In his last seasons he held a pitching coach's title and kept appearing in relief anyway, still on the mound at forty-three, finishing with 104 career wins. Coaching the men you are competing with for innings asks something of the body and rather more of the ego. He was never a loud presence, but for Kansai fans he sits close to the center of two decades of memory.
