His skill at pitching saw better days after he joined Feather River College, Quincy, California and had to his belt a score of league awards. He, however, got his first international break after he switched to the University of California, Davis, California and was inducted into the college team to play in the College World Series preliminary rounds. That proved to be a turning point in his career. Playing at the packed-to-capacity Stanford University stadium was the most wonderful and unforgettable moment of his life. Graduation over, Marco joined the Italian Baseball League. During his four-year stint in the Italian league, he was once able to win the titles of the Best Pitcher. During his career stay in Italy, he had the opportunity to represent the Italian National Baseball Team in international competitions played outside Italy. Marco's latest entry this year was into the Italian team Cinderella that outplayed Mexico and Canada to advance to the second round of the World Baseball Classic. This victory by Cinderella triggered an offer for him from the Dunedin Blue Jays, the Class A-Advanced affiliate of the Toronto Blue Jays major league baseball club. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Marco Grifantini」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
