That's amazing. I would have thought that the Japanese were a lot stricter about that kind of thing; who'd have thought they were more liberal (and generous) than the American major leagues? Different sport, but I always think about journeyman basketball player Paul Shirley, who wrote the book, "Can I Keep My Jersey?" (The answer was "No".)
