Ralph Bryant Biography

Ralph Bryant is one of the most popular and richest Baseball Player who was born on May 20, 1961 in Fort Gaines, Georgia, United States. Ralph Wendell Bryant, born May 20, 1961, is a retired Major League Baseball pitcher. He was a major league baseball player for the Los Angeles Dodgers. He also played in Nippon Professional Baseball with the Chunichi Dragons as well as the Kintetsu Buffaloes. He threw right-handed and batted left-handed. For most of his professional career, he played outfield.

Dick Davis, the Kintetsu Buffaloes’ cleanup batter, was taken into custody on drug charges. The Buffaloes had to release one of their top hitters mid- season. The Buffaloes were unable to fill the offensive gap left by Davis and instead found Bryant, a minor league player for the Dragons. The Buffaloes bought Bryant’s contract after seeing him hit a home run during a minor league game. Although the Dragons’ minor league staff opposed the deal, regulations only allowed two non-Japanese athletes per team. The Dragons already had Genji Kaku, a Taiwanese star in baseball, and Gary Rajsich, a slugger, so there was no room for Bryant. On June 28, the purchase was completed, resulting in one of the most powerful left-handed power hitters ever to come out of Japanese baseball.

Bryant quickly made a name for himself with the Buffaloes. He hit 34 home runs in just 74 games, which contributed to their remarkable comeback. This placed them in second place behind the Seibu Lions of 1988. Ironically, many Buffaloes home matches that year were played in Nagoya Baseball Stadium. This is the home field for the Chunichi Dragons.

Bryant was born in Fort Gaines (Georgia) and attended Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College. The Los Angeles Dodgers drafted Bryant in the first round, 1981’s amateur draft. He had previously been drafted by both the Dodgers (and the Minnesota Twins) but didn’t sign with either of those teams that year.

Bryant was first promoted to the major leagues in 1985. However, he was unable to make himself a regular outfielder and spent the three years traveling between the minor and major leagues. Bryant was drafted to Japan by the Chunichi Dragons, Japanese Central League, in May 1988.

Bryant played his best season in 1989, where his 49 home runs led the Buffaloes to their third Pacific League championship. He won the season MVP award that year, and also tied Sadaharu Oh’s career record for hitting 3 home runs in a game 5 times. He continued his success in subsequent seasons, and retired in 1995 after missing most of that year due to injuries. He was invited back to Japan in 2005 by manager Akira Ogi as a hitting coach for the Orix Buffaloes. He left this job after only one year, but blasted three home runs in an inter-league home run contest during the season.
