Japanese pitcher Hideo Nomo

[Pandabearmadness]

is he throwing a forkball or what is his breaking pitch.

[iamgoingbatty]

Who cares about Japanese prospects lets get some of those umps over here. Those guys got moves.

it took a couple years but US players figured him out. He won rookie of the year over Chipper Jones.

@GuileMikeFSU that was bullcrap. chipper had 23 HRs & 86 RBIs, and Nomo wasn't even a real rookie. he was 26 and had a good amount of time in japan when he came to the dodgers.

[GuileMikeFSU]

@westprice Both of our statements include facts with the exclusion of that was bullcrap. I did not state Nomo should have won it, I said he did. Also since you have stats handy, the other part of my statement is true, after a couple years Nomo was knocked around. You don't know this, but I am a life long Braves fan and have always liked Chipper and thought he should have won ROY award.

[westprice]

@GuileMikeFSU i wasn't attacking your statement. i just stated my opinion which didn't contradict you at all. i completely agree that nomo was solved (he did pitch the first no-hitter at coors field), i just stated my opinion that chipper should have won.

[GuileMikeFSU]

@westprice ah kk, well we can both agree on this. GO BRAVES!

[WrestlerFRK09]

The best parts are on strikeouts where the umpire does the stupidest punchout ever. I mean hell i'm an umpire and mines better than that lol

[shadowplayer29]

his windup is similar to lincecum

[SasukeKunDesu]

That's the most awesome wind up I've ever seen

[beat4lifez]

man way too fuckin good, i miss his tornado form.

[gyromancy2]

KAZUHISA ISHII WAS BETTER

[Nitrotech23]

Thumbs up if you miss the days of Pedro Martinez and Hideo Nomo!!

[santoak47]

that umpire getting his karate chops on!

[obeytheory]

One of the most memorable wind ups of all time.

Nomo ftw!

[Koorice]

he was on the dodgers correct?

[chadsexinton]

video shows that baseball is not only about throwing 100mph pitches. if you can disrupt the batter's timing, that is all that is required.

[TDSUSERS]

not too shabby. i was like " wow, he's ganna fai- holy crap"

[JaiCourvoisier]

Gotta' love the 70's porn music at the beginning.

[hydejing]

best forkall in the world for the past 100 years until now

[rambo7276]

@hydejing who has the best one now then?

[bboyskeptic]

[TheGoldenWater]
