NEW YORK CITY - (Sports Satire) - Baseball fans all over America are in amazement at the newly-signed first baseman with the New York Yankees.
Sports Bet Gazette is reporting that the player, who hails from Osaka, Japan, is without a doubt the shortest first baseman to ever play in the major leagues.
Fuchi Yokomama, who only stands 5-foot-4, is being hailed as the next great baseball player to play in the "Bigs."
Yokomama, first began playing baseball at the tender age of two months. His father Yochinsu Yokomama would hit him regulation-size baseballs and little Fuchi would catch then like he was sucking on a pacifier.
When Fuchi was a senior in high school, he was named The Best Baseball Player in Japan.
Yankee scouts soon heard about him and they signed the 17-year-old to a four-year contract that will pay him $11.5 million per year.
When asked what he likes about America the most, Fuchi bowed and blushed and said he likes to go to Hooters, and have Buffalo Wings, and a glass of saki, and gaze at the scantily clad babes.
