Yamakawa in American Baseball Association HOF Wednesday, January 7th , 2026 455 home runs, 2161 hits and 1324 RBIs are the stuff of legend, but Jeremy Yamakawa doesn't see it that way. "For me, baseball is about the team winning. I could have taken an 0-for-4 that day, but if our team won, I don't think you could have come into the locker room and been able to tell that I did not get a hit because the most important thing to me was that we won. That was what we intended to do when we took the field. That's what it was about." Fortunately for baseball's newest immortal, he had far more good days than bad days. That's why Yamakawa has been installed into the American Baseball Association Hall of Fame by the Baseball Writers Association. In his historic career the standout center fielder participated in 2197 games, batted .272, scored 1382 runs... and won a few games, too. |
