Gerardo Parra is bringing "Baby Shark" to Japan.
The outfielder has agreed to a deal with the Yomiuri Giants of Nippon Professional Baseball, the team announced, according to MLB.com.
Parra's deal is for one year and includes $2 million in guarantees, $500,000 in bonuses, and a $3-million vesting option, according to ESPN Deportes' Jose F. Rivera.
The 32-year-old Parra became a fan favorite in Washington during the Nationals' World Series run thanks to his "Baby Shark" walk-up song and positive contributions to the team's clubhouse.
