TOKYO, Feb 04 (News On Japan) –
Los Angeles Dodgers’ Shohei Ohtani, 29, made a extremely anticipated look on the group’s Fan Fest, receiving a heat welcome amidst loud cheers from a stadium adorned in Dodger blue.
Ohtani shared his emotions on donning Dodgers’ colours: “Seeing the blue, it feels like a stark contrast to the Angels’ red. It’s finally hitting me that I’ve made the move.”
In his first public look since becoming a member of the group, Ohtani responded to questions on his canine Decopin and his interpreter Ippei Mizuhara. “Mizuhara and I have a professional relationship, not friends per se, but we get along well within that context,” Ohtani remarked. When requested about his pet’s favourite actions, Ohtani stated, “Decopin reacts a lot to lights. So, I often play with him by moving a light around while I’m lying down.” Choosing between pizza or burgers, Ohtani decisively most well-liked “Burgers!”
Discussing his goals for the season, Ohtani emphasised, “The only goal is truly to win the World Series. I believe the fans share this sentiment, and it would be great if we could fight through the season together.”
Ohtani is about to start out the camp on February tenth, Japan time, with excessive hopes and clear targets for the upcoming season.
