Naoto Nishiguchi

Honestly, the second I saw Naoto Nishiguchi grew up in Yao, Osaka, I felt this little pang of affection. That's a working-class pocket of Kansai, the kind of place where you picture a kid getting dusty and sweaty on a dirt field, drilling the same swing a thousand times until it sticks. I don't know his full résumé, and I'm not going to pretend I do, but baseball is such a grind, all those invisible reps behind one clutch moment. There's nothing better than watching a steady, blue-collar type finally deliver when it counts. So yeah, I'm rooting for the Osaka kid who's out there betting on his own body.
