My Take
Abe won a batting title as a catcher, which still sounds impossible to me: calling the game, minding the runners, and out-hitting the whole league anyway. Nineteen seasons with one club, the Yomiuri Giants, captain from 2007 to 2014, and later their manager until he resigned in May 2026. The same uniform for nearly his whole career.
