From a Sim that I did several years ago with Puresim, I fell in love with the Russian-born star of early Nippon baseball Victor Starffin.

His personal story is an interesting one, as an outsider in Japan (his parents had moved there when he was a boy) he never felt as though he fit in until he starred for Tokyo. Then, during the war, he was not allowed to play and was under house arrest (I believe, though he may have been sent to a camp). Though he came back after the war, he was once again an outsider.
