Cute. But if I were the commissioner of baseball, I would ban stuff like this.

A few years ago while the Braves were playing the Blue Jays the Braves played "Beat It" while Reese McGuire was walking to the batters box.

Had to Google that. That was great. Hopefully someone has the balls to do it to Ohtani.

I am so sick of pussyfooting around with elitist BS.

If Ohtani wants to maintain good PR, do the following:

LEARN HOW TO SPEAK ENGLISH WHILE COLLECTING HALF A BILLION DOLLARS!

Fix the PR disaster with his first Dodger Stadium home run ball. 2 signed hats, a signed bat and a signed ball instead of the HR ball, and a threat from the Dodgers that they would refuse to authenticate the ball? Fuck the Dodgers! I hope Ohtani blows up in their fat faces.

From what I read, it does sound like Dodgers security did not treat the people who had the home run ball fairly. However, I saw that someone from Heritage said the ball would be worth $100,000. I don't follow memorabilia prices. Does that seem reasonable to anyone who does? It seems like a lot more than I would have expected.

I think it might sell for more right now just because Ohtani is in the news and him being on the Dodgers is a new thing. But the ball isn't a real milestone home run and I would highly doubt the valuation in an auction that didn't happen today.

I also think it's interesting that Ohtani has once again failed to tell the truth about even an innocuous circumstance like meeting a fan.

The entire situation surrounding Ohtani this year has been a mess. At this point, I don't think we'd ever find out the truth about the betting scandal/interpreter scandal. A part of me wants to clear Ohtani of wrong doing, but the cynical other part of me, believes that Ippei was the fall guy. And the end of the day the MLB would not want to lose their Golden Goose, even if he bet on games.

Whoever handles his PR should be launched into the sun, they've done a terrible job. As a side note, I believe Ohtani does speak English, but is more comfortable speaking through an interpreter. There's nothing wrong with that, and while I do respect his privacy, Celebrities now aren't afforded the privacy they once were. Especially ones of his caliber. He's for all intents and purposes, the face of the MLB.
