A Stylish Tsuyoshi Shinjo Bobblehead
Date: 2001
Tsuyoshi Shinjo played 10 seasons in Japan before joining the Mets as just the second Japanese-born position player in MLB history. With the Mets, Shinjo lit up the field with his style and attitude as much as his offensive prowess. Orange wristbands were just one of the outfielder’s trademarks. The Mets distributed this bobblehead in Shinjo’s first season with the team, when he batted a solid .268/.320/.405.
