The fact that Yonamine is born in Hawaii, which is part of USA, and that he is a Nisei Japanese American from the Japanese Wikipedia [http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E4%B8%8E%E9%82%A3%E5%B6%BA%E8%A6%81] should not be ommitted. Wikipedia is a place where all users should conribute openly.

Regarding the statement:

"Wally Kaname Yonamine was inducted into the Japanese Baseball Hall of Fame in 1994 for his achievements during his 12-year career with the Giants and Dragons. He is the only American yet admitted into the Hall as a player."

I think that honor goes to SEE Tadashi Henry Wakabayashi. Em-jay-es 06:24, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
