This week I profile the Japanese slugger who rewrote the Japanese and international baseball record books in his image, during his 22 year Nippon Baseball League career. No player outside of the great Babe Ruth ever dominated the game for so long, in any of the game's top professional leagues around the world. His 868 career home-runs is over 100 more than MLB Home Run King Barry Bonds. And if baseball is ultimately a game of numbers, then no single batter in any of the world's top baseball leagues, has left behind a more enduring statistical legacy. I dig into his journey from his humble beginnings as the son of a Chinese immigrant father, stigmatized by his foreign ancestry, digging their way out of the rubble of a war-torn Tokyo after World War II, to a career that would utlimately define the rise of the Japanese superstars, we see today on the MLB stage. #SadahauOh #ShifukuOh #TetsuhiroOh #WasedaCommercialHighSchool #Koshien #FlamingoStance #HiroshiArakawa #ShigeoNagashima #TheEmporersGame #BabeRuth #HankAaron #YomiuriGiants #KyokoKoyae #SadaharuOhMuseum
