We fans are simple. We see ohtani, we click
indeed we do
I love that when Steven speaks Japanese, Shohei responds in English
That’s how Steven wanted the Japanese players to feel at home playing in MLB
The quintessential language learning experience 🤣
I don’t know if it’s just me, but he looks so much more comfortable this year and that makes me happy
Watching this … I thought same thing. Going to have a monster year
Well he had multitude of challenges last year and being new to the team plus the high expectations 😊
Winning and being in a positive culture will do that for you
He looks younger
@@miyuyeager Interesting tidbit. Has that been written about? I haven't seen any reports saying that, but it makes sense.
back-to-back-to-back-to-back-to-back-to-back-to-back-to-back-to-back-to-back
What a hectic off-season for him. Announced a baby is on the way, had to get labrum surgery and rehabbing the whole time, palisades fire making him have to evacuate as well. The goats been busy! Hopefully he'll come back 100% healthy and at full strength.
日本、東京からも同じ願いでいます
Ohtani works out 5-6 days a week.
He’s a stud.
Prof athletes have to so they can stay fit. But ohtani is coming off few injuries so you have to train a little more than normal to regain same strength as before
Anyone that isn’t is pretty lazy
Ohtani is everything that is right about sports, respect for the traditions, respect for the game , respect for the players and respect for the fans . When an organization does things the right way, why should they be punished. Every team can follow this concept , that the team comes first. The fan base is important . That morality and family is important .. the Dodgers let go of Puig and Trevor, and any player who plays the game to build only their personal status. Go Dodgers
You mean he is the complete opposite of Lebron?
Like Milton Bradley....😂 not a good person not a good fit for the dodgers
@@JohnSmith-nj4zq doesn't Lebron give a lot back to his community? Does he not respect the game, the players, and the fans too? The only problem I see regarding Lebron is he seems to be insecure in his place in the game and seems to need validation from others.
You also forgot to add in Machado on that list. Dodgers let him go bcz hes not a good fit. Padres worship that clown like a leader and that clown thinks hes the leader of the clubhouse and thats why he and Soto didnt get along and they ruined 2023 season for the Padres. Dodgers dont need any of those toxic clowns.
@ yes
That's gonna be awesome!!
If Ohtani wins nine more times, OMG I will die happy.
🤩🥰😍☺
Dodgers have 8 WS titles while Yankees got 27 WS titles
Ohtani was just joking
@@dsuttajit most of those were won with 5 teams . Yankees are overrated
Two reasons why he uses translator…. even though he can understand and speak English… Hes a perfectionist and wants his English at his best before he goes solo….. #2 He actually mentioned he does it for his Japanese Fans
Plausible deniability when he gets caught betting
@@brice7894 keep crying
I really enjoyed the interview. Thank you, Shohei and everyone on the stage! 🎉
Let’s go!
Casual Shohei looks soo cool
He’s in great shape.
yes so much went on for Shohei during the short off season. Maybe good preparation , time wise, for soon to be father. He looks happy . Sending aloha and best wishes for a great 2025 ...both as a player and fatherhood. Seems like baby due end of April or early May? so excited for Shohei and Mamiko!
let’s goo DODGERS let’s go back 2 back world champs 💙
I'm just imagining Shohei stepping on the mound for the first time at the Dodgers stadium. It will be LOUD.
Nine more times!
Cool!
MVP🎉
So happy to be a Dodgers fan when Shohei is part of the team. Go Dodgers 🎉🎉🎉
Forget the WS. Just wanna see Ohtani shuffle Sotos ash again.
I am so excited to see him pitching again.
I sincerely hope he's been working on a Knuckleball tho
Lets go Ohtani!
Fans looked deep as always. Even now more with the new Evil Empire. Don’t blame our team for wanting more championships is LA all day 🌴.
For the comments! Love me some Dodgers🙌🍻
he's got the dap down perfectly now lol
9 peat it is!
9 more wins would be a 10-peat, no?
Hi I'm from Japan. Could anyone enlighten me who the guy in the middle who spoke Japanese? His Japanese is pretty good and sounds natural.
Stephen Nelson is usually an announcer on the radio during games I believe
@@tofu3stars He’s also half Japanese
I think he's half japanese
@@moviebuff83 Thank you! I'll google him.
@@tootspogsforever5590 Ah.. That makes sense
2 three peat will do for me
The dodgers, players and front office, are good people... not just their ability, talent,.. and if people don't understand how important that is, I don't know what to say 😊
Coming from any other person you'd probably not take it seriously! But hey, this guy just started the 50-50 club and own the WS in his debut season with a new team, so I guess he knows what's he talking!
he could have been an actor, a basket ball player, a swimmer, but he chose baseball
Wow, that sucks. He just bought a house and had to evacuate. Hope it didn’t burn.
He said in a later interview that his current home was safe.
@@miyuyeagerah ok, thx for the update
I worked this and heard screaming and now that’s why
👏👏👏👍🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Ohtani looks slimmer than when he was playing. I wonder if the bigger size helps him more. Similar to gronkowski
Go Yankees
ヒジ心配です 無理しないで試合して下さい👏
If he gets nine more, and continues with good stats he will go down as top 5 player of all time
He already is
@darthsullen he is not a top 5 player of all time right now
9 more and he is top 5?
WKWKWKKW
what standard is that? So who is the number 1-3?
翔平の英語を理解する能力すごいね。英語で質問されて通訳されなくても答えてる。
またスティーブンの日本語も上手。やっぱり言葉は大切だよね❤
The translator doesn’t translate everything Ohtani’s saying
I think he did a great job. On a live stage, the time was limited. ;-)
Pretty much of every sport translator. As long as the translator convey the right points from the foreign player say. Different with translator for political purpose, like for gov's head, ambassador, news politics coverage, etc.
Although Ippei was a bad person, his translations were better.
Will is doing great but Yamamoto's translator needs to be replaced
Yea…. Not happening. He’s the GOAT but he’s already 30. He’s got about 6 good years left, if that. If the Dodgers stay healthy, he can definitely win 3-5 in a row.
ワールドシリーズチャンピオンでシーズンMVPの日本人いや宇宙人？
He wanna win 9 or 0 championships it’s decide only time not he. So many good teams out there not only one team exists 😂😂😂
hes not getting those 9
when the Braves exist
As bilingual, the slight, yet repeating “lost in translation” is a bit irritating 😂. I’ve been saying dodgers need to hire a real interpreter who can actually interpreter what the interviewers are saying and what Ohtani is saying..
Hell, might be possible with that God Team he have. Let's hope it's not gonna be a Miami Heat Incident.
did this man just ask Ohtani if hed prioritize his child over his dog?
I got 2 words for all the haters hating about Dodgers spending too much: Frank McCourt...now proceed and stfu
Lol he wants 9 more rings well dont stop buying yet lol
Clickbaity-est thumbnail ever. Turns out he was just shaking a guy's hand!
自分がサインした契約の大きさを知ってるね、さすがです。
10年契約で10回世界一をめざすと言っても誰も驚かないのでは？
そんなこと言うメジャーリーガーが今いるかな、結果はともかく
あと9年それを目指す彼の姿を見ていたい。
Lfg
If no more gambling theres a shot.
Read the affidavit if your literacy happens to be half decent.
They should ask Shohei how much he knew about Ippei's gambling habits.
Just curious, 7 years in the league ,do you ever plan on speaking English in public ? because it dose appear at times it sure looks like u are speaking to different players in the dugout during games
He can speak english, just search it up
I would say eventually he will get there, but it will probably be like Ichiro. It’s good to have a translator there so that any important context and nuances don’t get lost while communication, and Ohtani seems like a very deliberate person.
On the plus side, he started answering many of the questions asked in this interview before Will even got a chance to translate to him! So his grasp on understanding English has improved leaps and bounds over the past year. Just gotta work on sending the message back in English
Last year, Shohei was asked about margaritas by an interviewer, and he answered, thinking it was a pizza margherita.
In order to avoid such misunderstandings, it seems that an interpreter is necessary at official occasions.
You know that Shohei is a person who solely purpose living in USA is just to play baseball. He doesn't want any troubles that can disrupt his concentration for playing baseball. Including misunderstanding from what he said in an interview. Dude also has a perfectionist trait. When in public, he feels more comfortable speaking in his language rather than speaking with broken English. So, I would say, let him speak with whatever language he wants. We attracted to him not for his speaking language, but for his baseball talent.
Short answers, yes. But he wanted to have a more thorough answer and not one that gets lost in translation.
Well I called it like this let’s see if it happens threepeat 24-26 lose one (27) threepeat 28-30 lose another (31)then finish 32-33 two more chips
Does he want 9 more interpretors to throw under the bus to do his gambling bidding like he did his boy?
I only wish your literacy were half decent so that the 37-page affidavit would then tell you all about the allegation.
