	Archived Weblog Entry - 01/09/2004: "Japanese Baseball News: Ichiro Mentor Now a Hall of Famer"
		Former Nishitetsu Lions second baseman and Kintetsu and Orix manager Akira Ogi, 68, was named to the Japanese Baseball Hall of Fame today along with the late Taiyo Whales submariner Noboru Akiyama, becoming the 150th and 151st men to be so honored.
		Hideo Nomo was the ace of the pitching staff during most of Ogi's tenure and, much like he would do with Ichiro, he allowed the righthander to follow his own practice routine and didn't try to change his Luis Tiant-like windup.
		Before he was fired at the end of the 2001 season in the wake of a four games above.500 fourth place finish, Ogi accumulated a 926-745-49 record in 13 years as a shot caller with three pennants and the one Japan Series title.
