About this episode
On this episode of RINTARO, Daron Vaught introduces a member of Stanford's baseball program labeled by the coaches as a "blessing in disguise" when recruiting Rintaro Sasaki and helping him acclimate to his new life in the U.S. Rintaro Sasaki's teammates (and others) also explain the moments at which they realized just how famous the Japanese superstar is and the level of celebrity he brought with him to Palo Alto. RINTARO is part of the D1Baseball Podcast Network and is hosted and produced by Daron Vaught.
