How the heck do you start - let alone win - 11 games in a single month? In many ways, Inao reminds me of Wayne Gretzky. Both were indisputably legends in their time, but one can only imagine how much greater and timeless their fame would have been had they played in a top-tier market during the peak years of their career. No doubt Inao would have eclipsed Nakashima as the most celebrated old-time member of the Giants (and by extension, of Japanese baseball) to this day had he played for that team instead of the Lions.
