Dodgers Superstar Welcomes Baby Girl!!!
Published
Shohei Ohtani has added another member to his family’s lineup … a baby girl!
The Dodgers’ superstar and his wife Mamiko Tanaka — a former professional basketball player from his native Japan — welcomed a daughter on Saturday, the team announced.
The little slugger’s name was not revealed … but Shohei said in a message that she and mom were happy and healthy.
Shohei also thanked his team and all the medical professionals who helped them — but it’s not clear where his wife gave birth.
This is the first child for the couple … and manager Dave Roberts said before the Dodgers’ game Friday night in Texas that Ohtani was on MLB’s paternity list.
Besides the news that everyone was well … the best part of the message was a snap of his daughter’s tiny feet — ready for some new cleats.
Take about a homerun!
