Did you know about Sadaharu Oh?

His performance dipped slightly in both statistical categories in 1961 but Oh truly blossomed in 1962. In 1985 American Randy Bass playing for the Hanshin Tigers came into the last game of the season against the Oh-managed Giants with 54 home runs. The magazine Takarajima investigated the incident and reported that the Giants front office had likely ordered the team not to allow Bass an opportunity to tie or break Oh's record.

Oh holds the world career home run record with 868 home runs as well as Japan's single-season home run record of 55 set in 1964. His second daughter Rie Oh (born in 1970) is a sportscaster and presenter on the J-Wave radio network. The Japanese team defeated the Cuban national team for the championship.
