In other news, after three tune-up starts on the farm, Bauer is expected to make his NPB debut tomorrow vs the Hiroshima Carp.

My first thought was he was mimicking Bruce Willis in pulp fiction when he stabs the guy that they are keeping in the basement.

Yeah, that'd be closer to the version of it from MLB linked above where the "sword" is going to his right hip. I don't think that was his intention though as the clip of him doing it in a Japanese rehab start has him going to the left hip, which is at least a bit less incorrect (he still looks like an idiot). I suspect it was always supposed to be sheathing the sword and at some point he realized he was going to the wrong hip.
