To commemorate this event, I've entered Sun's pitching data (while in Japan) into his profile page. His 38 saves in 1997 tied with Yokohama's Sasaki for the Fireman Award that year.

I think it's great that Sun wants to study before managing. Many here in Japan are banking on returning Japanese (i.e. Mac and Yoshii on Orix or Irabu on Hanshin) to communicate Major League practices to their teams as well.
About

This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.

It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.
