Shohei Ohtani Gives Incredible English Speech at Dodgers World Series Parade

Shohei Ohtani shocked fans at Dodger Stadium with his speech following the World Series parade. Although Ohtani usually uses an interpreter, he spoke to Dodger fans in English.

“This is such a special moment for me,” Ohtani said. “I’m so honored to be here and to be part of this team. Congratulations, Los Angeles. Thank you fans.”

On the parade route, Ohtani brought his famous dog, Decoy, which excited fans even more. In his first year with the Dodgers, Ohtani added to his already remarkable resume.

The Dodgers designated hitter became the first player in MLB history to hit 50 home runs and steal 50 bases.
