This is where the subtitles won't match what the Ippei character is saying translating the Ohtani character.

Ohtani just gets so much more attention now that he's a Dodger. Even his New Balance commercial has "Hollywood Swinging" playing in the background. Now they're making a scripted show about him.

I wonder if any Angels will be characters.

Rendon doesn't have anything else on his schedule right now.

I'm shocked that a great player gets more attention when he goes to a better, more popular team that has actually been relevant within the past decade. Shocked!

It could be a sitcom where Ohtani walks into the locker room and says: Odoroita koto ni watashi wa kekkon shite!

(Suprise I am married!)

All the players smile odly but have no idea what he means and then his Bride walks in wearing a wedding gown.

<Cue laugh track>

He'll be at a minimum security "Club Fed." There won't be any ass raping going on.

I bet they'll have the Dodgers games up on the big screen in the rec room.

Too bad Robert Goulet isn't around anymore. He would have played Arte Moreno perfectly.

Edit: Ricard Maltaban as well.

Mario Van Peebles is a shoe-in. Age him up a little and give him the Walt Disney mustache.

Wonder if David Fletcher taught Ippei how to play poker.
