On March 15th, Shohei Ohtani posted a photo on his Instagram story just before heading to South Korea for the opening game of the Major League Baseball. In response to this post, after Otani’s post, Dodgers Official X posted a two-shot photo of Otani and his wife, Mamiko.

The Instagram story only says “기다려지다! (I can’t wait!)” in Korean, and does not mention the details about the photo, but it shows the interpreter, Ippei Mizuhara and his wife, and pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto. The six people, including interpreter Yoshihiro Sonoda, were in the photo, and it was easy to surmise that the photo was taken to commemorate the departure of the family together, so the whole world sent congratulations once again.
On the same day, Ohtani departed for Seoul, South Korea, for the opening game of the Major League Baseball game between Padres and Dodgers (on the 20th, Japan time).
The woman pictured next to Otani is former women’s basketball player Mamiko Tanaka. Tanaka is 27 years old and was born on December 11, 1996. She is 180cm tall, weighs 70km, and is from Tokyo. She attended Tokyo Seitoku University High School and Waseda University. She joined Fujitsu Red Wave in 2019, was selected as a candidate for the Japan national team in August 2021, and will retire from active duty in 2023.
The opening series of the Major League Baseball series “Padres vs. Dodgers” is scheduled for March 20th and 21st, and will be held as the “MLB Seoul Series 2024.” Both games are scheduled to start at 7:05 p.m., and the opening game on the 20th is scheduled to be broadcast live on NHK General (terrestrial) from 6:05 p.m., and from the expressions of the players before the game, you can see exactly what will be broadcast on terrestrial TV. It is said that it will be relayed. Simultaneous and missed broadcasts will also be available on NHK Plus. The second match will be broadcast live on NHK BS from 6pm. The Padres’ opening pitcher will be pitcher Yu Darvish, who will be pitching for the fourth time in two years. Dodgers pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto will start in Game 2 on the 21st.
