He walked out of a small town in East Asia and embarked on the road to baseball with a worn-out glove and passion.
In the draft that no one expected, he defeated the doubters with one bat; in the abandoned farm league, he reversed the game game after game; from the minor leagues to the major leagues, from the bench to the All-Stars, he broke the rules with his swing!
"You never could predict how far his next shot was going to go."
When he broke Bonds, surpassed Otani, and became a god at Yankee Stadium - the whole world realized:
The first man in MLB history, from the East!
