Side Dish #4: Asians in Baseball

Play Ball! The brightest star in American Baseball right now is Japanese pitcher/hitter Shohei Ohtani, but he is far from the first star to play America's pastime.  My friend Justin and I geek out over stats and reminisce about some of our favorite Asian and Asian American baseball players from the past and present.  See if you can answer our trivia questions and I bet you will not know who our honorary Asian is during our Asians Being Awesome segment.

Write in and tell us your favorite Asian baseball player, at Infatuasianpodcast@gmail.com or message us @theinfatuasianpodcast on Instagram or Facebook.  Please leave us a review at Apple Podcasts!  Listen to us wherever you get your podcasts.
