You say potato...

An imagined conversation from Spring Training...

Unidentified Person: So how do you say your name again?
KJ: Kenji Johjima
UP: OK, so that's Kin-gee Jo-ja-MAH?
KJ: No, Kenji Johjima
UP: OK: Kin-JEE JOH-ji-meh?
KJ: Um, closer: Kenji Johjima
UP: KEN-ji Joh-ji-MA?
KJ: Kenji Johjima
UP: KEN-ji Joh-JEE-ma?
KJ: (to himself) Can I go now? I'm hungry and Ichiro promised to take me out to dinner as soon as I was finished here (out loud) Yes!!!!

Two months later, a different UP overhears a Japanese broadcaster speaking about Kenji JOH-ji-mah and figured out that we've all been saying it wrong for two months. DOH!!!
