[edit] Biographical Information

Michael Restovich signed with the SoftBank Hawks for 2008 but only hit .220 with 3 homers in110 AB. He spent much of the season in ni-gun and disagreed regularly with manager Sadaharu Oh, who Restovich felt was too much of a perfectionist. In September, he returned to his native Rochester to visit his father, who was dying from cancer. Restovich said his father helped him see that baseball was not all that mattered before passing away.
