Yoshinobu Yamamoto's Dream Season
Yoshinobu YamamotoTitle: Yoshinobu Yamamoto’s Dream Season
Yoshinobu Yamamoto had always dreamed of pitching in the Major Leagues. After dominating in Japan’s Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB) with the Orix Buffaloes—winning three straight Sawamura Awards (Japan’s Cy Young equivalent) and two MVPs—he finally got his chance.
In December 2023, Yamamoto signed a historic 12-year, $325 million contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers, the largest deal ever for a pitcher. The pressure was immense, but Yamamoto was ready.
Spring Training Jitters
His first bullpen session in Arizona was shaky. The baseball felt different—slicker than the NPB ball. His signature splitter wasn’t dropping as sharply, and MLB hitters were more patient. After a rough spring outing where he gave up three homers, doubts crept in.
'Is my stuff good enough?' he wondered.
But his teammate, Shohei Ohtani, gave him advice: 'Trust your fastball. Attack the zone. You belong here.'
Regular Season Redemption
On Opening Day 2024, Yamamoto took the mound at Dodger Stadium. His first pitch—a 97 mph fastball—froze the leadoff hitter. His curveball snapped viciously, and his splitter finally behaved. Six innings later, he had 9 strikeouts and allowed just one run.
By midseason, he was an All-Star. His 12-3 record, 2.50 ERA, and 180 strikeouts made him a Cy Young favorite. The Dodgers cruised to the playoffs, and Yamamoto delivered a 15-strikeout gem in the NLDS.
World Series Glory
In Game 3 of the World Series, facing his old NPB rival Munetaka Murakami (now with the Yankees), Yamamoto fired a 1-2 splitter. Murakami swung… and missed. The Dodgers won the championship, and Yamamoto was named World Series MVP.
As confetti rained down, he smiled. 'This was my dream. But now, I want more.'
The End… or Just the Beginning?
