Francisco Lindor (Mets) “We’re lucky. We’re going to see Shohei, a unicorn, again next season. I’m always looking forward to what he’ll do.” Gerardo Perdomo (Diamondbacks) “He taught me Japanese and I said to him, “I’m going to bat for you!” Shohei didn’t mind signing it. He’s a super nice guy!” Gerrit Cole (Yankees) “I’ll be honest. We’re supposed to be rivals, but when I watch Otani play, I become a fan.” Ever since Otani became active as a two-way player, there’s something that’s been secretly talked about among MLB fans. This is a phenomenon that could be called the “Otani faith” by major leaguers. Players from the opposing team approached Otani to talk to him even though the match was in progress, and asked for his autograph even though he was also a major leaguer. Some of the players even practiced their Japanese in order to speak with Otani. A rival player who would normally be talked about as the “opponent to beat” is now speaking and acting like a passionate Otani fan. In the 2025 season, Otani ended the season with the best result of winning the World Series with two-way play. However, it’s not just his grades that are truly amazing. In the highly competitive world of Major League Baseball, Otani’s true charm lies in his personality, which is loved by both friends and foes. Why are his rivals in the professional world so obsessed with Otani? So, in this video, I would like to introduce a lot of comments from MLB players who love Otani. From the friendly conversations on the bases, to asking for autographs in Japanese, to the way he treats himself as a teammate, the story clearly shows Otani’s humanity and charm, so be sure to watch until the end! 〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜 ◆About BGM materials Download sites/Free BGM/Music materials MusMus →https://musmus.main.jp/ ・DOVA-SYONDROME →https://dova-s.jp/ ・NoCopyrightSounds →https://www.youtube.com/@NoCopyrightSounds
