I like how Yamada is so quick with his slide tackles. He adds some grit to the team.

タンパへようこそ  (Welcome to Tampa)  I think he speaks better English than I do though.  How about our other foriegn born players, do they understand we are cheering for them?

Ralphs Mob should learn a cheer in Japanese just for Yamada.
