El japonés afirmó que estaba ansioso por su debut. Sus nervios no se calmaron al permitirle un cuadrangular al dominicano Melky Cabrera, el primer bateador que enfrentó. Pero Tanaka se recuperó para completar siete sólidos episodios, llevándose la victoria por 7-3 sobre los Azulejos. El manager de Toronto para entonces, John Gibbons, dijo que, “Definitivamente, es de verdad”.","type":"text"},{"__typename":"Video","contentDate":"2017-04-27T23:10:00Z","preferredPlaybackScenarioURL({\"preferredPlaybacks\":\"mp4AvcPlayback\"})":"http://mediadownloads.mlb.com/mlbam/mp4/2017/04/28/1329862483/1493352701182/asset_450K.mp4","type":"video","description":"Masahiro Tanaka lanza solo 97 picheos permitiendo tres imparables en el blanqueo, ponchando a tres en la victoria 3-0 ante los Medias Rojas","displayAsVideoGif":false,"duration":"00:00:29","slug":"tanaka-s-three-hit-shutout-c1329862483","tags":[{"__typename":"InternalTag","slug":"hbmig-mmtax-2017","title":"HBmig 2017","type":"unsupported"},{"__typename":"InternalTag","slug":"hbmig-away-team-id-147","title":"HBmig away_team_id: 147","type":"unsupported"},{"__typename":"InternalTag","slug":"hbmig-mmtax-mlbcomwatermark","title":"HBmig MLB.com Watermark","type":"unsupported"},{"__typename":"InternalTag","slug":"hbmig-subject-mlbmobile-application-highlight","title":"HBmig MLBMOBILE_APPLICATION_HIGHLIGHT","type":"unsupported"},{"__typename":"InternalTag","slug":"hbmig-combined-media-state-media-archive","title":"HBmig MEDIA_ARCHIVE","type":"unsupported"},{"__typename":"InternalTag","slug":"hbmig-mlbtax-strikeout","title":"HBmig Strikeout","type":"unsupported"},{"__typename":"InternalTag","slug":"hbmig-mlbtax-mm-hightlight-reel","title":"HBmig Highlight Reel","type":"unsupported"},{"__typename":"PersonTag","slug":"playerid-547888","title":"Masahiro Tanaka","person":{"__ref":"Person:547888"},"type":"player"},{"__typename":"TeamTag","slug":"teamid-147","title":"New York Yankees","team":{"__ref":"Team:147"},"type":"team"},{"__typename":"InternalTag","slug":"hbmig-team-id-147","title":"HBmig 147","type":"unsupported"},{"__typename":"InternalTag","slug":"hbmig-mmtax-shareable","title":"HBmig FB shareable (internal)","type":"unsupported"},{"__typename":"InternalTag","slug":"hbmig-home-team-id-111","title":"HBmig home_team_id: 111","type":"unsupported"},{"__typename":"InternalTag","slug":"hbmig-subject-mlbcom-top-play","title":"HBmig MLBCOM_TOP_PLAY","type":"unsupported"},{"__typename":"GameTag"},{"__typename":"InternalTag","slug":"hbmig-mlbtax-vtp-sizzle","title":"HBmig Players Who Sizzle","type":"unsupported"},{"__typename":"TaxonomyTag","slug":"pitching","title":"pitching","type":"taxonomy"},{"__typename":"TaxonomyTag","slug":"highlight","title":"highlight","type":"taxonomy"}],"thumbnail":{"__typename":"Thumbnail","templateUrl":"https://img.mlbstatic.com/mlb-images/image/private/{formatInstructions}/mlb/awyudujljzbbsghzkerv"},"title":"Tanaka blanquea permitiendo tres imparables","relativeSiteUrl":"/video/tanaka-s-three-hit-shutout-c1329862483"},{"__typename":"Markdown","content":"**2\\.

Desde su primer día en las Mayores, Masahiro Tanaka se exigió un nivel de perfección. Su celebrada llega en el 2014 trajo consigo grandes expectativas, luego de una temporada en la que el derecho sumó un impresionante récord de 24-0 y una efectividad de 1.27 con Rakuten Golden Eagles de Tohoku.
Tanaka estaba acostumbrado a ganar y pretendía seguir haciéndolo en Grandes Ligas. El diestro tuvo una gran gala de presentación en la que confesó sus intenciones de ganar una Serie Mundial con los Yankees.
Aunque al final se quedó corto de su meta, el tiempo de Tanaka con los Yankees será recordado por sus oportunas actuaciones y su habilidad de poder superar obstáculos -- ninguno mayor al de tener un ligamento colateral cubital parcialmente desgarrado que condicionó su temporada como debutante en las Mayores. Sin embargo, eso queda casi en el olvido cuando se habla del “Paso de Tanaka” por el Bronx.
1. Bienvenido al Show 4 de abril, 2014 en Toronto
Luego de siete semanas en los entrenamientos, Tanaka seguía siendo una interrogante para el manager Joe Girardi y los Yankees. El japonés afirmó que estaba ansioso por su debut. Sus nervios no se calmaron al permitirle un cuadrangular al dominicano Melky Cabrera, el primer bateador que enfrentó. Pero Tanaka se recuperó para completar siete sólidos episodios, llevándose la victoria por 7-3 sobre los Azulejos. El manager de Toronto para entonces, John Gibbons, dijo que, “Definitivamente, es de verdad”.
2. Ningún Sale 27 de abril, 20147 en Boston
Chris Sale era el centro de atención del Este de la Liga Americana de cara a la temporada del 2017, como el nuevo as de los Medias Rojas. Tanaka aceptó el reto como parte de la rivalidad, llegando al Fenway Park con la intención de recordarle al mundo sus habilidades. Fue una absoluta potencia, superando a Sale con un juego al estilo Greg Maddux – lanzando un juego completo de 97 pitcheos, en el que retiró a los últimos 14 rivales de Boston que enfrentó y permitiendo que un solo corredor alcanzara la intermedia. “Mucha gente pensó que Chris Sale era el favorito”, dijo Tanaka.
3. Octubre brillante 8 de octubre, 2017 vs. Cleveland
Con los Yankees abajo 2-0 en la Serie Divisional de la Liga Americana y enfrentando la eliminación, Tanaka mantuvo con vida a los Bombarderos en un electrizante Yankee Stadium, superando en un duelo al venezolano Carlos Carrasco, ponchando a siete rivales, permitiendo tres imparables y otorgado un solo boleto. El esfuerzo fue salvado gracias a una gran atrapada de Aaron Judge para robarle un hit al puertorriqueño Francisco Lindor en la sexta. Greg Bird aportó la única carrera del partido con un cuadrangular en el séptimo episodio ante Andrew Miller. Tanaka dijo, “Vine hasta acá para lanzar en este tipo de juegos”.
4. Intocable 18 de octubre, 2017 vs. Astros
Tanaka puso a los Yankees a las puertas de la Serie Mundial, lanzando siete sólidos innings de tres imparables para poner a los Yankees arriba 3-2 en la Serie de Campeonato de la Liga Americana. Tanaka mostró una inusual emoción cuando venció en un duelo a Dallas Keuchel, gritando tras ponchar a George Springer y a Josh Reddick con dos hombres en base para completar la quinta entrada. Tanaka dijo sobre su mentalidad en el encuentro: “Sales, batallas y vacías el tanque”.
5. Precisión 17 de junio, 2019 vs. Rays
Tanaka tuvo 14 juegos de 10 ponches o más durante su paso por los Yankees, incluyendo uno de 15 abanicados el 29 de septiembre del 2017 en Toronto. Pero su salida más precisa pudo haber sido su mejor. Tanaka permitió dos hits – mejor marca personal -- y ponchó a 10 rivales en una victoria por 3-0. No dio bases por bolas y 76 de sus 111 envíos fueron strikes. Evaluando sus pitcheos, Tanaka dijo que “estuvieron más precisos que nunca”.
