I am so happy and proud to learn of Hideo Nomo's election to the Japanese Baseball Hall of Fame. He was quite a pitcher and competitor, but he is also a very special and caring person.

I went over there, put my arm around him, and said, 'What are you crying for? When major league players lose, they don't cry.'
