## Bio

Born May 20, 1940, to a Chinese father and Japanese mother, Oh signed with the Yomiuri Giants in 1959 as a pitcher before the team converted him to hitting full-time. Under coach Hiroshi Arakawa, he developed his signature flamingo leg kick - it took three years to click, then he became untouchable. He won 15 home run titles, five batting crowns, and the Central League triple crown twice, carrying the Giants to 11 Japan Series championships, nine of them consecutive from 1965 to 1973. In 1977 he became the first recipient of the People's Honour Award. He managed the Giants from 1984 to 1988, then the Fukuoka Hawks from 1995 to 2008, winning the inaugural World Baseball Classic with Japan in 2006. He is currently chairman of the SoftBank Hawks.
