“I am really excited that we have signed Dai-Kang Yang! To have a guy with sixteen years experience in the NPB is pretty special for the DockHounds and the American Association,” says Manager Jim Bennett. “His veteran presence will be a huge asset to the team. We’ve just given our fans one more exciting reason to come out and cheer on the DockHounds!”
Yang began his career as a first-round draft choice in 2006 and quickly showed his impact on the field. He is a two-time Nippon Professional Baseball Gold Glove Award winner in 2012 & 2013. Yang was also a two-time Game MVP during the 2012 & 2014 Nippon Professional Baseball All-Star Series.
