He started his professional career with Orix Buffaloes of Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB).
Yoshida represented the Japan national baseball team in the 2014 Haarlem Baseball Week, 2015 Summer Universiade, 2019 exhibition games against Mexico, and 2019 WBSC Premier12.
Yoshida played college baseball for Aoyama Gakuin University and was selected by the Orix Buffaloes in the first round of the 2015 NPB draft.
Yoshida first played in NPB for Orix during the 2016 season, when he had a .290 batting average with 10 home runs and 34 runs batted in (RBIs) in 63 games.

On December 15, Yoshida signed a five-year contract with the Boston Red Sox, reportedly worth $90 million.
In January 2023, he was ranked 87th in the Baseball America list of baseball's top 100 prospects, as the publication includes NPB players joining MLB in their rankings.
That ranking was considered "alarmingly low" by Peter Abraham, the Red Sox beat writer for The Boston Globe.
On April 23, 2023, Yoshida hit two home runs in the same inning, including a grand slam, in a game against the Milwaukee Brewers.
Yoshida was named AL Player of the Week for the week of May 1–7, having gone 12-for-25 with a 1.319 OPS and not a single swing and a miss in this period.
In 2017, he played 64 games with Orix, batting .311 with 12 home runs and 38 RBIs.
In 2018 and 2019, he played 143 games each season, batting .321 and .322, respectively, with an aggregate 55 home runs and 171 RBIs for the two seasons.
On February 27, 2019, he was selected to the 2019 exhibition games against Mexico.
On October 1, 2019, he was selected to the 2019 WBSC Premier12.
In 2023, Yoshida represented Japan in the World Baseball Classic.
He set a tournament record for RBIs with 13.
At the end of the tournament, he was named to the All-Classic Team.
For 2020 through 2022, he had batting averages of .350, .339, and .335, with a total of 56 home runs and 224 RBIs in 349 games played across the three seasons.
Yoshida hit two home runs in Game 5 of the 2022 Japan Series, including a walk-off; Orix won the series in seven games (one game ended in a tie) over the Tokyo Yakult Swallows.
