Former All-Star Reliever Shigetoshi Hasegawa Selling His Irvine Mansion

Attention, baseball and golf fans: You can own former MLB pitcher Shigetoshi Hasegawa’s Irvine, CA, mansion for $2.19 million.

The 3,300-square-foot home has three bedrooms and 3.5 baths. There’s also a den, formal dining room, chef’s kitchen, and great room. Larger families could convert the den into a fourth bedroom or office. The master suite comes with a fireplace, walk-in closets, and a bathroom with double vanities, a whirlpool tub, and separate shower.

“Each room is very spacious for a three-bedroom home,” says listing agent Mie Katayama.

There are multiple upgrades throughout, including custom tile and hardwood flooring, windows with designer coverings, and surround-sound speakers. The backyard, which looks out to the ocean, features a saltwater spa, fireplace, built-in grill, and putting green.

The home is located in the Summit of Turtle Ridge community on a cul-de-sac lot. There’s also a community clubhouse with gym, pool, and walking trails.

Hasegawa began his MLB career in 1997 with the Anaheim Angels, becoming the team’s first Japanese player. In 2002, he moved to the Seattle Mariners, and landed a spot on the American League All-Star team in 2003.

He retired from baseball in 2005 and has written multiple books and served as a commentator for NHK TV’s Japanese broadcasts of MLB games. He doesn’t seem to be giving up on the participant side of the sports world just yet—Hasegawa recently competed in the U.S. Amateur golf championship.
