Former MLB Player Nate McLouth Speaks Spanish With a Shockingly Perfect Dominican Accent

Former MLB outfielder Nate McLouth is from Michigan and spent his entire career playing in the United States. But there’s a video making the rounds online today that’ll have you convinced he was born and raised in the Dominican Republic.

In a 2012 interview with a Dominican reporter, McLouth speaks Spanish in an absolutely flawless Dominican accent.

During the conversation, McLouth explains that he learned how to develop his accent with his teammates in the minor leagues. "I have many teachers," he says, sounding like he just came out of his apartment in Washington Heights.
