Munenori Kawasaki sings for Cubs teammates at spring training
Former Blue Jay puts on karaoke performance for new club
Former Toronto Blue Jays shortstop Munenori Kawasaki is already making an impression on his new teammates at spring training.
The Chicago Cubs, who signed the 34-year-old to a minor league deal in the off season, tweeted a video of the team taking part in karaoke on Friday.
Naturally, the Toronto fan favourite stole the show with his version of Aerosmith's I Don't Want to Miss a Thing. The squad donned Japanese headbands as they cheered on the riveting performance.

For Jays fans these endearing displays are nothing new. Kawasaki spent three years with Toronto's organization and garnered attention for his candid interviews with the media.
