Masahiro Tanaka, will he remain a Yankee?
The New York Yankees Masahiro Tanaka was born in Itami, Hyogo Japan, on November 1, 1988. He didn’t waste much time; he started playing baseball in the first grade as a catcher in little league. He played alongside Hayato Sakamoto, who was then the team’s ace pitcher. They hit next to each other in the lineup. He continued to play until he reached junior high school when he played both catcher and pitcher due to his strong throwing arm. He played for the Takarazuka Boys but was chosen to the Junior All-South Kansai team in his third year of junior high school.
