Japanese Baseball Player Gives the Best Post Interview Ever!

(youtube) This is just a whole lot of fun. Kawasaki hit a walk-off two-run double off Baltimore's struggling closer Jim Johnson—giving the Blue Jays a 6-5 win in a game they trailed 5-2 going into in the ninth—and delivered a great impromptu-yet-also-scripted post-game interview.

Kawasaki is called on camera for a post-game interview by teammate Mark DeRosa and proceeds to take the microphone and yell his name and country of origin. He then reads from prepared note cards and gets pied-and-Gatoraded. Good times all around.

I love that his respectful bowing is so ingrained into him that he keeps instinctively doing it then consciously has to stop himself because he knows he's in front of a bunch of people who would probably sooner scoff at than appreciate it.
