Browsing up on Matsuzaka

A few things I've found poking around the Internet today:

Here's a link to Daisuke Matsuzaka's career stats in Japan.

Click here to see a grainy video of Matsuzaka hurling for the Seibu Lions, and a goofy diagram comparing the gyroball, the mythic Matsuzaka trick pitch, with a standard curveball and slider.

For more about Japanese baseball in general, Bob Bavasi's JapanBall.com has lots of facts and some cool pictures. I love those mascots in the photo gallery.
