Real Home Run King Eats Shabu-Shabu

| | Comments (0)

I'm not much of a sports fan, but even I know that Barry Bonds, a roid-enhanced SF Giant, just beat former Brave and ATL hero Hank Aaron's home run record. Bonds' record: 756 homers.

Alas, we Japanophiles must note that, once again, the real record belongs to someone you've probably never heard of in Tokyo. Bonds' and Aaron's numbers are both impressive, but perhaps as or more impressive:

Oh Sadaharu has 868.

Says Mr. Oh, when asked about Aaron's/Bonds' record/s: “I’m just a man who happened to hit a lot of home runs in Japan.”

Touche, little dude. Touche.
