I'm A's fan in Seoul, South Korea.

New team of Lehr is my favorite team in the Korean Professional League.

He'll arrive in Korea tomorrow.

Maybe he'll start on weekend. (vs Kia tigers)

some magazine call him that ''Zito's Friend' , 'ground baller'

(Kia Tigers - Jose Lima , Wilson Valdez, Jay Seo, Hee seop Choi play)

(Doug Clark play Hanhwa Eagles, HR 1st, Run 1st, RBI 3rd in league)

(Karim Garcia play Lotte Giants, HR 1st, in league)

Thank you for joining us!

It’s good to know there are so many A’s fans in Korea. I always enjoy the A’s-themed comics on Naver.com even when we don’t have translations.

Don't blame me, I voted for Ice Cream

But if he does, hopefully his wife shows up.

I’m very glad to see a Korean A’s fan because I was always under the impression that any American team that a Korean person would follow would have to be one with a Korean ballplayer or one with Chan Ho Park.

From my experience, Koreans love their baseball as much as America does. As a Korean-American, I know I love baseball as much as any other baseball fan.

another korean here

I remember being the lone A’s supporter in the office when we all watched a Tex-Oak game with Park pitching…
The A’s won, and I got a crapload of work from my boss that day..

All worth it.
