Jonny Gomes 'Flying High' In Japan As Rakuten Eagle
Well, it didn't take former Red Sox OF Jonny Gomes very long to get acclimated to Japanese baseball. He's already appearing in videos! During a Spring Training workout with his new team—the Rakuten Eagles—Gomes showed off some of his classic stylings. Said the fashionably sun-glassed Gomes, "I'm not just here for myself, I'm here to win." Amazingly, Gomes has been a creepy good-luck charm at virtually every stop he's made in baseball—including the 2013 World Series Champion Boston Red Sox. Hopefully, he can soar just as high with the Eagles! You can see the full video HERE.
