There’s this thing that happens when you’re transgender. You’re just trying to live your life — running a race, going to work, shopping for groceries — and someone hits you with a question, an assumption, or a comment that makes you feel like a novelty instead of a person. It’s exhausting. And it happens more often than you’d think. As a trans man, I’ve had people question whether I’m “really” a man because I haven’t had bottom surgery yet.

Shohei Ohtani isn’t the only Japanese trailblazer changing the way North Americans think about baseball in 2025. On Sunday, superstar pitcher Ayami Sato made her debut for the Toronto Maple Leafs in Canada’s Intercounty Baseball League. In doing so, she broke the gender barrier and became the first woman to play in a Canadian men’s professional baseball league. Given the history-making nature of Sato’s achievement, her first start was a success the second she took the mound at Christie Pits Park.

I wasn’t a boy’s basketball player. I was a basketball player.”As a player, he was battling within as fiercely as he played on the court. That struggled ended in 2017, when he came out publicly as a transgender man.
