Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani announced the birth of his second child on his Instagram account Saturday. Ohtani and his wife, Mamiko Tanaka, expressed their joy and gratitude for the safe arrival of their baby.
The news of Ohtani’s second child came as a surprise, as he was not in the Dodgers’ lineup on Friday due to paternity leave. However, he returned to the lineup on Saturday and is expected to make his next start on the mound on Wednesday.
Ohtani’s family life is not often publicly discussed, as he is known to be private about his personal life. However, he did share a photo of his newborn baby’s hands and feet, as well as a stuffed version of his beloved dog, Decoy.
