Shosei Go

Shosei Go

Shosei Go (吳昌征 "Go Shōsei", Pinyin Wú Chāngzhēng; June 28, 1916 - June 7, 1987) was a baseball player from Taiwan. He was a leadoff man who played for the Tokyo Giants (1937-43, now the Yomiuri Giants), Hanshin Tigers (1944-1949) and Mainichi Orions (1950-1957, now the Chiba Lotte Marines). Only 5-foot-6 and 140 pounds, he was nicknamed "The Human Locomotive" due to his speed. As a left-handed outfielder, he won two batting titles and a stolen base title. Go also threw the first postwar no-hitter against the Tokyo Senators in 1946.
