The first Japanese player to join the Texas Rangers was Masanori Murakami. He made his debut with the team in 1964, becoming the first Japanese player to play in Major League Baseball (MLB) when he pitched for the San Francisco Giants earlier that season. Murakami's time with the Rangers was brief, but he paved the way for future Japanese players in MLB.
