Shohei Ohtani bobblehead night: Dodgers star makes MLB history after catching first pitch from his dog

Los Angeles Dodgers fans love them some Shohei Ohtani. And they might love his dog, Dekopin (a.k.a. Decoy), even more.

They got plenty of both on Wednesday, with Ohtani making MLB history, catching a pitch from his dog and inspiring some of the longest lines in you will ever see at Dodger Stadium.

It wasn't a surprise that when the Dodgers announced they would be giving away an Ohtani and Decoy bobblehead, fans started preparing — primarily by clearing their schedules to make sure they could be one of the first 40,000 fans to enter Dodger Stadium on Wednesday.
