It was Ohtani's wife's idea to invite someone like this kid instead of herself throwing the first pitch.
So beautiful moments created by the people with beautiful hearts.
but we still need her to throw a first pitch 😂
...and that is why Mamiko Tanaka is the BEST MAMI...
perfect couple
Actually it was Shohei’s idea to give the opportunity to someone else than his wife and asked Mariko if it would be okay, then she thought it was good idea. Upon couple of options she decided for him. That’s the detailed order 😊
According to Japanese media, it's Dodger's tradition to let a family member throw the first pitch on the player's bobblehead night but Shohei and Mamiko discussed it and preferred that the opportunity be given to a kid who loves baseball but doesn't have much of an opportunity to watch the game live like Albert. Kudos to the Ohtanis for thinking bigger.❤
크..
Is anybody gonna talk about how Shohei scooped the pitch and framed it? This guy could probably be starting catcher if he wanted to
Of course😏👍
he could frame a dirt pitch into a strike i bet
Maybe he can play catcher AND pitcher so he frames all his pitches as strikes. If any man can do it, Ohtani can!
@@DavisBlank if anybody can do it its Shotime 😂
Ohtani is a great ambassador for the game. He is an elite athlete yet remains humble and down-to-earth. You can see the joy when he’s on the field. And people like that genuineness.
You're so right. He's raised the level of the game also. Pitchers have to be very careful throwing to him, since one mistake can go second deck. Plus the way he gets ovations when he homers in other stadiums just shows that he is enriching all the teams.
yea - that's the way to show the kids how to be a humble person. What a role model.
Look at Ohtani man, so inspirational.
*curry is currently crying in the corner*
It's crazy how much Ohtani has brought to LA already
It’s the least he could do billion dollar man
@@Tony-fromBrooklyn perhaps, but there are alot alot of rich people, what have they done......
@@Mark-te8ky same things Shohei does
@@Tony-fromBrooklynThe world's biggest idiot
Don’t think many of them have deferred such a large portion of their pay cheque to help their team become more competitive 😂😂
I’m deeply moved by Shohei Ohtani’s thoughtful gesture.
It's especially moving because you can tell he's not just doing it as an obligation but because he's got a kind heart. His smile and gestures toward the kid all seemed genuine.
more than genuine
Im just happy how Ohtani is a humble player 😊
Shohei Ohtani is the GOAT. Not only is he arguably the greatest player of all time, but he's the most humble, and most giving and caring player to add to is. He's never acted or believed he's above the game, or deserved anything more, he just works hard and always gives back. He's the Greatest Of All Time, hands down, no second thoughts. The guy is a role model everyone should look up to.
Albert's happy face is priceless!!😃 Shohei's smile is priceless too!!
Shohei loves loving kids, and as he said, he wants every kid to have a dream, like he did when he was still small.
Shohei is the greatest baseball player of all time, both on and off the field.
Wishing Albert and his family all the best and a long, full life for Albert. Shohei Ohtani once again showing us why he's more than just a great ball player, he's a great person.
All facts and just here to co-sign a great post 💯
The smile on his face can light up the entire room.
Wishing Albert a long fulfilling life and may he become a future Dodger #DodgerBlue
It was the Shohey's bobblehead night. Usually, the player's family throws the first pitch, thus Shohey's wife was scheduled to throw. But, Shohey and his wife decided to give up the opportunity for the kid. It's super nice kindness, but no surprise as the way of the Ohtani family.
That mom deserves a lot of credit!
All you need is God.
That kid will remember this moment for a long, long time. LET'S GO DODGERS!
He’ll remember it for his whole life!
No matter what difficulties may befall him in the future, this boy will survive.
I salute Mr. Otani and all those involved for their efforts.
It must have been an unforgettable day for the boy.
The strong heart that endured meeting the world's greatest superstar and making the first pitch in front of 50,000 people will be ready for anything in the future.
The look on Albert’s face when Shohei walked in is absolutely priceless ❤ May God protect you and your heart. ❤️
God blessed his heart ❤
SHOHEI is our Hero.
greatest player of all time
Shohei is the GOAT, on the and off the field...young man will never forget that day.
Some people may say this is a way to gain goodwill, while others may say it's unfair. But one thing is certain: a great player gave this boy and his family an experience they will never forget. It cannot be changed into anything.
You can see how strong, dedicated and relentlessly optimistic his mum has been all his life, and how much love she has for her son. This experience meant as much for her as it does for Albert. She is the definition of a strong woman!
😂
Albert's big smile makes us all happy.
I’m not a huge fan of baseball, although I do like it and watch it. But this guy is such a class act and makes me feel so good about the world. I love how he seems to genuinely care about his fans and wants to give back to them.
Calling it now. Years later this kid will make his mlb debut and will credit shohei for that success!
I wanna see retired Shohei throwing the first pitch to Albert on his 1st day in MLB as a starting pitcher
There aren't to many people worth looking up to but Shohei is a solid role model for kids that if you work hard, love what you do, and are humble you'll go places.
Sho a good man
I’m not crying, you’re crying🥹🥹🥹
I’m not crying, it was the damn onion truck driving by.
Otani left the angels this year, still remains as a angel
❤❤❤😊
Fun fact, the Dodgers initially asked Ohtani if his wife could throw the first pitch for the game, it’s Ohtani’s day after all. Instead, Ohtani felt that this opportunity should go to someone else especially some kid who hopes for the dream in baseball. So he rejected putting his wife in field. It shows how caring and thoughtful Ohtani truly is. The city and the team deserve the man.
Shohei was super lucky to have the chance to meet that young man.
Thank you Dodgers. You provided me another reason to be proud of being a Dodgers fan!😢
Can we talk about how gorgeous the Mom is?! What a beautiful person inside and outside!!!
That’s the power of sports, players may earn millions but moments like that are priceless 😁
This is the standard all celebrities should be held to. Not spending & wasting millions & rubbing it in people's faces. Look at the sheer & constant joy in this boy's face. It's so depressing when u see someone staring at their phone, with no care nor clue what's going on while sitting in expensive seats at sporting events.
It's a great privilege for professional players to give happiness to people, especially children.
Even the catch from Ohtani was elite. But way the go Albert, keep fighting 💪
We could very well see this young man in the MLB one day. These moments matter.
This is beautiful ❤ Shohei bringing smiles to everyone’s faces 💙
Priceless smile.
Congratulations to albert, what a great journey for a kid. That look on his face at 1:44 was everything
彼とその家族の皆さんがこれから沢山の幸せに恵まれますように🥹
seems like hes a fighter! so will do fine!
This video brought tears to my eyes. It’s very inspiring to see a Ohtani make this kids day, just by being there for him. The VERY BEST of luck to this young man.
Shoei ohtani is even a better person than a player. 💙💙💙
Your smile and your family's smiles are so wonderful. From Japan with love.🇺🇸🇯🇵
It’d be super cool if Albert grows up becoming a pro baller and make it in the Major League. On his first day, this video will be dug up and old Shohei will be smiling, still. We all will.
こんなの見たら泣いちゃうよ
Albert, you're a hero!!!! So glad you had this opportunity of a lifetime :)
It's the first time hearing Shohei speak in English and his pronunciation is good and clear. Would like to see him answer in English when he can.
Beginning to think how his translator was actually the one holding ohtani back from evolving his English given his own self serving interests and Ohtani finding out..
Japanese people are generally very hesitant to speak english. I guess when he becomes a lot more comfortable in his speaking skills, he'll eventually do so.
There are also youtube shorts showing him speaking english to umpires, players, staff, etc. He also stated that he understood everything when Ippei's gambling and theft news was addressed in English during the team meeting. Also, he may be slower and less clear in English. therefore, he speaks Japanese on interviews.
The kids mom is a powerhouse.
Even after having a huge amount of money stolen, he hasn't changed anything. Because that's Shohei
It was Ohtani's wife's idea to invite someone like this kid instead of herself throwing the first pitch.
So beautiful moments created by the people with beautiful hearts.한국에서 잘보고있습니다
It was Ohtanis idea to give it to someone else than his wife when approached by the Dodgers. Then the couple discussed out of several option and she decided Albert would be the best option.
he's perfect in every way
This stuff always makes me cry. And I’m a 32 y.o. man.
Same here… I’m also 32
I am 54 and in tears :))
Congratulations to Albert . On graduation middle school ❤❤
Happiness all around
The world needs more of this. ❤
To come so far and to meet your all time favorite player. Such a beautiful moment he will never forget.
Such a wholesome moment! I love my Dodgers and I love Shohei! 💙👏🏻
Omg ! That was so adorable ! He got to meet his idol !! Congratulations Albert you totally deserved it !! 💙
오오타니 쇼헤이 선수의 선한 영향력에 감동 받았습니다. 일본의 보물이고 아시아의 보물이며, 비단 동양인 뿐 아닌 모든 야구 팬의 귀감이며 우상입니다. 😊
Você é da Coreia? Shoei tem fãs neste país, quebrando a barreira de ressentimentos?
@@andersonyukihiromatunaga2914Yeah, almost every Korean doesn't care whether Shohei is a Japanese or not.
And he also has so many fans here in Korea too 😊
Absolutely beautiful human beings.
spirit of a lion...heart of gold
nah this kid gonna have the coolest story to tell people throughout his life
grandchildren gonna be tired of hearing it 😂
Dear Albert, Best wishes & keep growing stronger daily. Bless you & your family. Go Dodgers!
This was a beautiful moment
People who have dreams can give others dreams.
Is no one going to mention how impressive that catch was by Ohtani?
God bless this kid………❤✝️✝️✝️
We should have Ohtani play catcher as well. Maybe even on days he’s pitching.
God bless this boy and his family.😊
It's great to encourage people who have lost their energy. Ohtani's great success will foster the dreams of children.
Simply beautiful in every way. ❤
Everyday is exciting in the last 5 months. I’m hopeful everyday waking up.
Ichiro made a big impact when he got to MLB, but Ohtani has had an exponentially bigger impact on baseball. When he got booed in Toronto back in April, everyone in the crowd went from "Boo!" to "Oooohhh!" off the crack of his bat because they knew it was going out and then the cheers came.
Too Beautiful for words!
Congrats, Albert!
大谷は超一流の選手だけど、人間的にも超一流ですね。
"Nervous?" I knew he could speak english!! 😜 Doesn't take much to be a kind human being.
Don’t tell the journalists, it allows him to keep them at arms length 😂😂
Albert and his mom seem like AMAZING people. What a great story!
This is a person that show be like this !!!
Make people happy to see your favorite person
What an incredible young man. Glad he got to experience such an incredible experience. Seeing the pure shock and joy really warmed my heart. An experience he will never forget.
His reaction ❤
この世で一番価値のあることは「子供に夢を与えること」だと思う。
Ohtani speaks English well
The way the his mouth open made me happy and smile. He got starstruck, saw the best player in the world, and why wouldn't he be?
Shohei Ohtani is really humble man & get well soon Albert
Love this video so much. Albert is a true inspiration. Good on Sho for giving this kid a truly special memory.
What a wonderful story. Best of luck to this great young boy and his family.
it is heartwarming.. i hope he grows up to be a good man.
Magnificent story, all the best to Albert and his family!
What an amazing human being
That is so awesome! What a dream come true for Albert. God bless his heath and life 🙏
Love you nephew, Albert IV❤️❤️❤️❤️
If you've watched Shohei's documentary, it's clear he's dedicated, determined to be a champion his entire life. How the media can paint him as a degenerate gambler shows their motivation and we should never forget that. The truth has nothing to do with it sometimes, they'll blow anyone up just to tear them down cuz either way they get clicks and views.
💯
I caught the feels on that one. Shohei is the personification of class.
Such a great story 🦄🤴💙🙏👍🫶
