    MLB trivia time (this is a good one)

    Only one franchise (active in 2015, not talking about the Washington Senators or the St. Louis Browns) I'm talking out of all the major league teams currently in MLB, only one team, and one team only has not had a natural born Japaneese player?

    What team has never had a Japaneese born player?
    (there might be Nasher points involved if answered promptly)

    No, I place in tournaments, play some o/8 on weekends, just haven't had a need to order 350 pizzas yet.
    I'm not here for the points, it's not that big of a thing to me.

    (waiting now for the "Nasher, throw some this way" pleas from the CarSellersof the world now)

    I think Rafael was like Domincan? or Puerto Rican however the way he choked up on the bat he certainly seemed to have some Jap in him

    Yes Hee-Seop Choi with cubs


    when I asked the question I was thinking about the first Korean to come over from the Koreon baseball organization to MLB

    Kang, recently signed by the Pirates

    but then realized Shin-Soo Choo was Korean so I dug deeper

    there have been 13 other Korean born Pitchers

    Chan Ho Park being the most well known
