Ben Zobrist forgets which side of the plate he's batting from, wears wrong helmet

While baseball itself may be an international language, the MLB players competing in the Japan All-Star Series are quickly learning that not everything is the same over there. The fans, the atmosphere, the souvenirs, the cuisine, the fashion ...

But even the Samurai Japan players were a bit surprised at Ben Zobrist's equipment choice during Game 4 of the series. Zobrist, a switch-hitter, came up to the plate in the sixth inning with Minoru Iwata on the mound for Samurai Japan. Iwata is left-handed, so Zobrist was set to bat from the right side of the plate ... until he realized he was wearing the wrong helmet.
