Shohei Ohtani plans to speak to the media Monday for the first time since allegations of illegal gambling and theft involving the Los Angeles Dodgers star and his interpreter emerged during the team’s trip to South Korea.
The performer, Ippei Mizuhara, was fired by the Dodgers last week as the team opened its season with two games against the San Diego Padres in Seoul.
Manager Dave Roberts approved of Ohtani’s decision to address the matter publicly.
“It’s the right thing to do,” he said. I’m glad he’s speaking out about what he knows and giving his perspective on the whole situation. I think this will give us all a little more clarity. »
Ohtani made only a brief appearance in the Dodgers locker room before Sunday’s Freeway Series opener against his former team, the Angels.
