@According2Heidi I'd love to join the stadium tour! 🏟️⚾

Hello to all my American friends！🇺🇲

My ultimate bucket list goal is to finally make the trip from Japan to Dodger Stadium. I want to put on my jersey, grab a Dodger Dog, and join the loudest, most passionate fanbase in MLB. 🌭⚾️

​The energy I see through the screen is absolutely insane, but I know it's 100x better in person. I can’t wait to be in the stands with you all someday and cheer for our boys in blue! 🏟️💙

​Dodger fans, what is the one thing I absolutely MUST do when I finally make it to the stadium? Help me build my dream itinerary! 👇

@According2Heidi @traderjoestism I really hope it doesn't come to that. Baseball is better when everyone can enjoy the game. Hopefully the owners and the players can reach an agreement before next season. 🙏⚾

@DMAjr16 @DodgersOnSI I'm worried about his knee.😭
I hope he recovers quickly. 🙏💙

Hello to all my American friends！🇺🇲

1/12 — Early Life

Shohei Ohtani was born July 5, 1994, in Oshu (then Mizusawa), Iwate Prefecture, Japan.

His father Toru was a former corporate-league baseball player; his mother Kayo competed in badminton at the national level.

The youngest of three kids, Shohei joined Little League at age 8, following his older brother. His name was chosen by his father as a tribute to Minamoto no Yoshitsune, a legendary 12th-century warrior tied to the Iwate region — "Sho" evokes Yoshitsune's famous leap between ships, "hei" comes from Hiraizumi, where Yoshitsune spent his final years.

Hello to all my American friends！🇺🇲

I'm worried about Shohei Ohtani's knee.

I think he should focus on recovering without pushing himself, and for now, concentrate on hitting until he's fully healthy. 🙏⚾

@EdwardBrode Shohei Ohtani is truly an incredible human being. 💙⚾

Hello to all my American friends！🇺🇲

Shohei Ohtani is on the mound tonight!

What if he throws a complete-game shutout and crushes two home runs to reach 350 career home runs across NPB and MLB?

With Ohtani, it honestly feels like anything is possible. You can always believe he'll do something extraordinary. 🔥⚾💙

@TalkinBaseball_ I'm hoping Murakami hits a home run in the All-Star Game! ⚾🔥
