Sugano's resume is impressive, and the Orioles hope the 35-year-old RHP has plenty in the tank

When Tomoyuki Sugano took the mound in the semifinals of the World Baseball Classic, pitching for Japan against the United States, it was a pretty good preview of what the major leagues might feel like. “Having the opportunity to pitch at Dodger Stadium in the 2017 WBC against the American team was a dream come true," he said through a translator. Now Sugano is on his way to the majors, although he's joining a team on a different side of the country from Dodger Stadium.
