Yusei Kikuchi:
Grateful to Pete Walker and how he stuck by him through his struggles in his first year with the team..
His only regret was not winning in the postseason.
His family loved Toronto, his son does not want to "move away from Canada.. that makes it tough for me."

This interview is precisely why Kikuchi was so loved by the fans, he was only in Toronto for a few years but saw Canada as his new home.
