The popular video game franchise Fortnite is welcoming Los Angeles Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani as a new playable character.

Shohei Ohtani is the star attraction for MLB’s season-opening Tokyo Series, and he made an honest admission about what it is like to return to his home nation to play.

The Los Angeles Dodgers star is a marketer’s dream — both a sports icon and national hero in Japan. Ohtani has about 20 active sponsorship deals at any time.

Amidst the Ohtani-mania, a photo of a stunning agricultural mural, which was depicted to honor the Dodgers superstar and his beloved dog Decoy, went viral after it was shown on the Fox broadcast of the Dodgers-Cubs game.

Dodgers overcome injury and early nerves to piece together a 4-1 opening-day win over the Cubs in the Tokyo Series as Shohei Ohtani had two hits and scored twice.

The Los Angeles Dodgers opened the regular season with a 4-1 win over the Chicago Cubs at the Tokyo Dome, which marked a homecoming for Shohei Ohtani. The two-way star, back in his native Japan, played a key role in helping the team win their first game of the season.
