Yoshitomo Tsutsugo

Tsutsugo left Wakayama for Yokohama High School, became the BayStars' middle-of-the-order bat, took his swing to the Rays, Dodgers and Pirates, then came home. That is not what I admire. He spent his prime years saying that Japanese youth baseball works children too hard and prizes winning too much. That costs you allies. He said it anyway.
