”HIRAOKA, HIROSHI" is a Railroad Engineer and succeeded businessman who visited US at his age of 15 apart from his family.
He studied engineering for five years and learned baseball as his hobby.

He is the first pitcher who threw "curve" ball in Japan. He learned it during his stay in US.
He is also a good musician. He made many songs and there are some famous musician in his relatives.
And when he learned baseball, the age was still 19th century.
