Japanese baseball aims to shed aged star image in Japan
Japan's Ja pan professional leagues say the country no longer serves as a resort for aging 1.5 players to earn money. With the 1972 season opening April 8, presidents Koji Suzuki and Tasaku Okano say American minor leaguers can help raise play and that teams now hire more thoroughly. They note few Americans have met expectations, while several former major leaguers remain, and an influx of younger foreign players continues.
