...compatriot but rather an Israeli, Ludmilla Lekior, a victim of the Hamas suicide bomber who killed 17 in a bus attack in central Jerusalem last week. Lekior, who immigrated to Israel from Ukraine nine months ago and was studying Hebrew, was among the 60 wounded in the attack who were brought to Jerusalem's Hadassah Hospital...

He follows in the footsteps of compatriot Hideo Nomo, the Japanese righthander who was the National League Rookie of the Year in 1995; Korean righthander Chan Ho Park, who won 75 games over the past five seasons; and Mexican lefthander Fernando Valenzuela, who as a 20-year-old in '81 won the league's rookie and Cy Young...
