Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.
Who holds the real record for the most home runs in professional baseball history? While American fans often point to Barry Bonds or Hank Aaron, the true world record holder stands alone at 868 career home runs: Sadaharu Oh.
In this episode, we explore how a struggling first baseman for the Yomiuri Giants overcame severe early-career slumps to become the most lethal slugger in global sports history. We break down his partnership with hitting coach Hiroshi Arakawa, the integration of Zen philosophy and Aikido into baseball, and the invention of his iconic "Flamingo Stance" (Ippon-ashi Uho). Plus, we look at his late-night practice sessions with a razor-sharp katana sword, his 11 Japan Series championships, and how his legacy stacks up in the global MLB debate.
