Kei Igawa is a Japanese left-handed starting pitcher for the New York Yankees. He played for the Hanshin Tigers of Nippon Professional Baseball from 1999 to 2006. He led the Central League in strikeouts in 2002, 2004, and 2006. He played in the 2006 Major League Baseball Japan All-Star Series.
When he play ball in Japan, he is a very good pitcher in Japan. After he go to New York, he can not throw the ball as good as he in Japan. Maybe the batters in MLB is better then them in Japan. I think is not ture, because Matsuzaka still does well in MLB. In fact, since Igawa went to New York, his ability for contorling ball is very bad. His fast-ball can not get a strike ball, and his ball is not heavy. Because this reason, he always lost many point in the game that he is the starting pitcher. I think he still a good pitcher, but New York's mass media give him a very big persure. If he can change team to play ball, I guess he will change.
