⚾ Baseball | Mr. Gulin (古林) Goes to Hokkaido

Sun makes ichigun debut.

We should just call this team the Taiwan Ham Fighters.

They pitched in the same game, apparently.

Yup, their manager Shinjo forecasted they would both pitch this game.

Every pitch.

Sun’s second outing. Thee up three down close, registers first K.

Another appearance, 1-2-3 inning, records save. The Japanese comments on this video were hillarious, calling him Masayoshi Son.

Every pitch of second outing.

Sun pitches again. He’s getting a ton of work, and fans are expressing concern about overuse because he’s topping out at 149 kph when he could hit >150 before. This is odd. Overuse one daiwangina, send the other one down to nigun to disrupt his rhythm.

Oh dear…

He is prone to shoulder and back issues. It might be his back because he didn’t touch his arm or shoulder once.

Just saw the news, he pulled a muscle in his left abdomen. He’s had that issue before too.

Has anyone seen Mr. Gulin? It’s been over 2 months. Anyone?

I saw on YouTube Sun is starting tomorrow.

He’s baaaaaaack

He did give up a lot of deep fly balls though.

baseball gambling now international

Anko just signed with Seibu?

That came out of nowhere, it seems.

Roshi signing with SoftBank.

I’m a little disappointed. I think Japan is going to break his arm.

He’s better in the MLB.

If this YouTube channel is legit, both Gulin and Sun have signed contract extensions with Nippon Ham.

Gulin’s name in kun is Furubayashi.

@DKaoshuing is this a common Japanese surname?

Apparently it does exist. It’s the 2101st most common lastname in Japan.

no not common, his name is 古林紙工???

What is kunt?

kuntsuyomi?
