My Take
Kiyohara was the slugger Osaka claimed as its own: a Kishiwada kid who hit like a grown man at Koshien, then gave Japanese pro baseball twenty-three seasons. What stays with me is not the power but the transparency, from draft-night tears to the very public unraveling after retirement. I have never seen an athlete less able to pretend.
