A: Hey, did you see the news about Murakami?
B: No! What’s going on?

A: He's going to play for the Chicago White Sox!
B: Seriously? Wow! That’s huge!

A: Yeah! It's a two-year deal, like 34 million dollars!
B: Amazing! I heard he was talking to a few teams.

A: He was! The Swallows posted him, so he was free to go.
B: So, he's officially leaving Japan then?

A: Yep! He’s 25, remember? Drafted straight out of high school.
B: I know! He was so young when he joined the Swallows!

A: He broke Sadaharu Oh’s home run record, remember? 56 homers!
B: Unbelievable! The youngest triple crown winner too!

A: He had that injury this year, bummer. But he still hit 22 homers in just 56 games after that.
B: That’s still so impressive! The White Sox really needed a strong hitter.

A: They did! They didn't have a great season, you know? Last place.
B: Oh yeah, I saw that. So, he's really excited, right?

A: Totally! He posted something on social media. Says it’s a dream come true!
B: That’s awesome! Good luck to him!
