He's perfectly fine as a contact\/low-strikeout guy, and when he's locked on, he's a joy to watch. His match in the 2023 WBC semifinal (Japan vs Mexico) will go down as one of the most legendary games in baseball history, with Masa giving his team the come-from-behind victory with a three-run homer.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n      For collectors, Masataka Yoshida trading cards hold high value thanks to his popularity among Red Sox collectors and Japanese fans, especially those who follow NPB stars into MLB.
