Katsuki Azuma, born on November 29, 1995 in Yokkaichi, Mie Prefecture, Japan, is a baseball player. Katsuki Azuma is 30 years old as of 2026. Education on record includes Aichi Institute of Technology Meiden High School. The listed height is 170 cm.
My Take
At 170 cm, Katsuki Azuma is small for a professional pitcher, and in Japanese baseball that means being doubted before you even throw. He has held his place with the Yokohama DeNA BayStars anyway. Born in Yokkaichi, Mie, and schooled at Aichi Institute of Technology Meiden, he reached the NPB All-Star game in 2018. That same autumn he was named to the Japan squad for the MLB Japan All-Star Series and then withdrew. He was also the Central League Rookie of the Year that season, went 16-3 in 2023, and won the Japan Series with the BayStars in 2024.
