Watch: Munenori Kawasaki stars in commercial for Japanese beverage company

It's the end of an era in Jays land as Munenori Kawasaki has signed with the Cubs. Tim and Sid pay their respects by saying goodbye to the man, the myth and the legend.

Munenori Kawasaki was born to be in front of the camera. Thankfully, Japanese beverage company Kirin gave him the chance to show off his skills.

Kawasaki, a former Toronto Blue Jays fan favourite who’s now with the Chicago Cubs, starred in the company’s new commercial advertising a lemon-flavoured alcoholic spritzer.

The 35-year-old infielder showed off his dancing skills and got to wield a samurai sword. What more could we ask for, really?
