Matthew Randel (born February 15, 1977) is an American- born Korean former professional baseball pitcher.
Randel was an unusual American pitcher in that over 80% of his baseball career was played in Asia.
He dropped out of college after two seasons at Lewis-Clark State College in 1999.
He was invited to tryout for the Fukuoka Daiei Hawks in Japan.
He spent two years with the Hawks, playing mostly for their lower-tier team.
He went back home to the United States in 2001, returning to baseball in 2002 in Fort Worth, Texas.
The following year he returned to Japan where his career fizzled out after two years.
His career was revived once again when a former teammate, Gary Rath, mentioned Randel to the Doosan Bears of the KBO League.
There he was able to establish himself as a reliable starter for four seasons until an injury forced him to retire.
