The Japanese superstar phenom Shohei Ohtani of the Los Angeles Dodgers was reportedly stolen. It wasn’t by anyone random, but reportedly his translator and best friend Ippei Mizuhara. The Dodgers fired Ippei Wednesday morning. He supposedly stole four million plus dollars from Shohei to pay off Gambling debts. However much is still unknown about the case as theirs been many conflicting reports. Shohei himself has refused to talk about the situation and has ignored press. Some reports have been saying Shohei had given him the money. There has also been reports that Shohei himself actually has a Gambling problem. This has caused people to want him to receive a punishment especially since one of the greatest baseball players of all time Pete Rose is banned from the Hall of Fame due to sport’s gambling. As of right now there is so much unknown about the entire situation.
