Korean Pitcher Gets First Cup of Coffee
Right handed starting pitcher Cha Seung Baek of South Korea was called up to the Mariners a couple days ago as part of Mariners' getting younger plan. Baek possesses excellent mechanics. He owns a 95 MPH fastball complemented by a good curveball and change-up.

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.
