Masumi Kuwata

Masumi Kuwata failed to make the Pirates this spring and has decided to retire. I can't write a better biography for him than what appears here, so I'll just show some cards:





From top to bottom, that's his 1987 Calbee card (# 150), a 1994 BBM card of him with his former PL Gakuen (high school) and future Giants teammate Kazuhiro Kiyohara (# 547), his 2002 BBM Nippon Series card (with Kiyohara in the background) (# S4) and his 2005 BBM Giants card (# G007).
