16 Year Old Girl Drafted by Japanese Baseball Team

Eri Yoshida, 16, was drafted by Kobe 9 Cruise in the Japanese League Talking Baseball. Wakefield's knuckle ball pitch inspired Eri to give baseball a chance. This is proof of the power of tv and video as it can translate and inspire someone thousands of miles away. Interesting to see if she can hit as good as she pitches at the professional level.
