Push it real good.

[sangar]

Push it real good.

Sounds like a diplomatic way of saying ファック.

Push it real good.

Out of context alert?

Kojisan gave up one of those Jim Hunter "tack on runs" last night to the Tigers' Raburn and that run eventually was the deciding tally in a Texas loss. He did have a K however. Maybe Mark Connor can consult with him????

Oh, it was definitely in context. Hey, I am not a lawyer but I have a thought or two from various non profit experience if you chose to pm. Or email. Have a great day.

Uehara picks off Cabrera – Not sure I recall Koji picking anyone off as an Oriole; at the same time it’s hard to do when nobody is ever on base. Link.

Koji gets out of the 8th with a vintage high swing and a miss. Great to see the classic reaction from Koji and his new teammates. Link.

I love this guy. Hope he gets a ring. I might actually be able to enjoy playoff baseball without the usual lurking bitterness.

Koji looks like he's enjoying being in the pennant race. Good for him. Ring for Koji = no ring for Boston or New York. Therefore, I'd love for Koji to get a ring.

Koji and fellow Ranger relief pitcher Yoshinori Tateyama went to high school together. Ranger fans are calling them "The Deadly Duo from Osaka". I bet they're having a blast.

I am so happy for them. Not a great year for their country.

[NewMarketSean]

I am happy for Koji too. He made it out the 'hood.

Wow, small world.

Ha, that's awesome. Very happy for Koji. That clip of him in the dugout all fired up is fantastic.

That's awesome. As much as Koji apparently liked Baltimore, it had to be a little difficult and isolating to not have any teammates who spoke his native language.

Ever since I read the thread title, I've been thinking I needed to write an homage to Koji to the tune of Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer:

Koji the Texas Ranger

Only threw it eighty-eight

But if you ever saw him

You would know he's really great

All of the other pitchers

Joked 'bout his veloci-ties

That never bothered Koji

Cuz he only speaks Japanese

Then one frenzied playoff eve

The manager came to say,

Koji with your strikes so light,

won't you close this game tonight?

Then all his teammates loved him

And they shouted out with glee,

"Koji the Texas Ranger,

You'll make baseball history!"
