Last night, Shohei Ohtani made a cameo at the Los Angeles Rams game, which was one of the big storylines. After inking a deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers earlier this month, the two-time AL MVP has surpassed all others in terms of global baseball fаme.

Despite being widely considered the MLB’s most gifted player since his debut, Shohei Ohtani has avoided the spotlight on a national level. Ohtani may or may not be at ease in the limelight since signing the most expensive deal in North American sports history with the Los Angeles Dodgers.
The acclaim he is receiving from North American audiences is evident from last night. The fact that the two-way star attended the Los Angeles Rams football game was a major story on social media.

A Los Angeles Rams shirt, number 17, which belonged to breakout wide receiver Puka Nacua, was even given to the new Dodgers superstar. The 22-year-old was overjoyed to see the superstar wear his number when he saw Ohtani receive the jersey. Regarding the gifts given to Shohei, Nacua remarked, “It put a big smile on my face, seeing him rock the 17.”
The second most important thing that happened to the Dodgers last night was that Shohei Ohtani went to the Rams game.
Another high-profile free agent signing drove Los Angeles Dodgers fans into a frenzy, yet Ohtani’s presence at the Los Angeles Rams made headlines.

The Los Angeles Dodgers ended up signing Yamamoto, which was expected by everyone. In order to join Ohtani in Hollywood, the 25-year-old inked a massive 12-year deal worth $325,000,000.
