Biography: Started playing baseball in third grade as a catcher. Lead his collegiate squad to two Tokyo Big Six University League titles as a junior. Was selected to the Japanese national college all star team that played against one from the U.S. his senior year. Because he wore glasses, pro teams were hesitant to pick him in the November draft, so he headed to the industrial leagues with Toyota. Played on the Japanese olympic team at Seoul, taking home a silver medal (1988). Drafted on the second round (1989). Became the first rookie catcher to be selected as an all star in 21 years (1990). Recorded the first ever cycle in Japanese all star annals (game two, 1992). Had a 24 game hit streak (6/6-7/11/1992). Had the first 30 homer campaign by a catcher in Swallows history (1992). Slugged four homers in a game in four consecutive at bats (6/28/2003). Became the head of the Japanese player's union, leading them to their first ever strike in September, 2004 over the merger between Orix and Kintetsu. The merger went through, but Furuta got the owners to admit a new club to the Pacific League to replace Kintetsu and also helped push through interleague play.  However, he has also called for a reduction in the number of foreign players allowed on a team's roster, insisting that the quality of play in Japan isn't improved all that much with non-Japanese in the lineup. Continued to play and hit well despite very bad knees the last three years, displaying tremendous ladership in doing so. Selected to 16 all star teams (1990-2004. 2006). Has been given one Matsutaro Shoriki Award (1997). His eight Best Nines as a catcher is a Central League record. Holds the Central League record for most consecutive chances by a catcher without an error in a season with 867 (4/26-10/13/1995). His 1046 straight chances without an error overall is also a Central League record for catchers (4/26/1995-5/17/1996). Named first playing manager since Katsuya Nomura back in the 1970's, signing two separate contracts, one for what he does as a player and the other for his managerial services (10/2005). 100th homer (5/7/1997 against Yomiuri at Meiji Jingu Stadium, the 190th man to that mark). 200th homer (6/29/2004 against Yokohama at Miyagi Prefectural Stadium in the top of the ninth off of Ryutaro Doi, a homer, the 80th man to that mark, but only the fourth catcher). 1000th hit (10/3/1997 against Hiroshima at Hiroshima Municipal Stadium, the 186th man to that mark). 2000th hit (4/24/2005 against Hiroshima at Matsuyama Botchan Stadium in the bottom of the sixth off of Kan Otake, a double down the leftfield line, the 32nd man to that mark, but only the second catcher and just the second Yakult player. In addition, he is the first player who has played in both college and the industrial leagues before going pro to do it). 1000th game (6/2/1998 against Chunichi at Nagoya Dome, the 343rd man to that mark). 1500th game (5/4/2002 against Chunichi at Meiji Jingu Stadium, the 135th man to that mark). His eight seasons of .300 or better is a pro yakyu record for catchers. 1000th RBI (10/5/2005 against Chunichi at Meiji Jingu Stadium in the eighth inning off of Akifumi Takahashi on a pinc hit single to left). 2000th game (4/19/2007 against Yokohama at Meiji Jingu Stadium; he became the first catcher ever who had gone to both university and played in the industrial leagues to reach that number. He was ejected in the seventh after arguing with the crew chief about the ejection of Masataka Endo for beaning Shuichi Murata). 1000th run scored (6/4/2006 against Orix at Meiji Jingu Stadium in the seventh inning).
