I've heard through the grapevine that his first name is pronounced Dice-kay (the U being silent). So does that mean his last name follows the same rule? Being pronounced Matt-zacka (Matsuzaka) or is it Matt-sue-zaka? Anybody know?

i think that's because of the fact Ichiro is customary as "Ichiro" right here interior the states, and that's what he grew to become into hyped as before making his MLB debut. Matsuzaka is customary extra by making use of his final call, and that's what maximum folk use to reference him while making use of one among his definitely names (as antagonistic to "cube-ok"). comparable may be seen with the Houston Rockets' Yao Ming, hyped and customary as Yao. Yao is at the back of his jersey for an identical reason as Ichiro
