Suguru Egawa (江川 卓, Egawa Suguru, born May 25, 1955 in Iwaki, Fukushima Prefecture) is a Japanese former pitcher and current baseball analyst. Despite being one of the best pitchers of his generation, Egawa's perceived arrogance and non-conformist ways earned him the media nicknames "Dirty Egawa," "The Giant Devil," and "The Enemy of the People."[1] This was because Egawa was single minded for the team he wanted to play for, which was the Yomiuri Giants, and the way on how he decided to try and sign with them.[2][3]
