Katsuhiko Maekawa Of The Washington Nationals

The Washington Nationals have signed former Kintetsu, Hanshin and Orix pitcher Katsuhiko Maekawa to a minor league contract. (More here.) His BBM rookie card was #463 from the 1997 set. He appears in the 2000 and 2001 BBM All Star sets as well as the 2001 BBM Nippon Series set. He also appears in the 1997 Takara Buffaloes set and the 2001 Upper Deck and Victory sets. Not sure if he ever had any Calbee cards. (As always, this not a complete list, just some of the highlights.)
