Face to face with a smile before the Mariners game
Angels pitcher Shohei Ohtani reunited with Mariners Ichiro (special assistant to the chairman and instructor) on the 3rd (Japan time 4th). He ran up to Mr. Ichiro and greeted him before the game against the Mariners.
Ohtani smiled and bowed to Ichiro and shook hands. Meeting for the first time in a while with a smile. It was about a minute, but there was a gentle atmosphere.
In the match against the Mariners on this day, he will start as “No. 3 / designated hitter”. Expectations are high for him to hit the second home run in two consecutive games.
