  Yutaka Fukumoto - BR Bullpen
Yutaka Fukumoto at one point held the world record for career and single-season stolen bases (Sophie Kurys stole more in the AAGPBL, but bases were much closer together as the league did not fully incorporate baseball rules).
In 1974 Fukumoto became one of the few Japanese players known in the USA when he climbed a wall in Nishinomiya Stadium to take a home run away from Koichi Tabuchi during an All-Star contest.
After retiring, Fukumoto was hired as a coach for the Orix Braves in 1989, where he stayed for three years, and for the Hanshin Tigers from 1998 to 1999.

 Hawaii Tribune-Herald article; December 25, 2002
Fukumoto and his wife, Myrtle, began doing bonsai --- the art of growing and sculpting miniature trees and plants --- in their Honolulu apartment in 1962.
Fukumoto and other bonsai masters borrowed some techniques and concepts from Chinese penjing, which emphasizes creativity and individuality --- "pure art" Fukumoto characterizes it, as opposed to the "pure craft" of rule-bound Japanese bonsai --- and mixed in a generous dose of American inventiveness.
Fuku-Bonsai has roots from a Fukumoto family hobby begun in Honolulu in 1962, which became a backyard nursery to provide prepared bonsai stock for bonsai classes, which moved to the Big Island of Hawaii to become the first Hawaii State Certified Export Nursery in 1973, and which became a corporation in 1985.
