Speaks English fine after interpreter is busted! Shohei Ohtani greets giggling Camer
For Cameron Brink, the world is only starting to open up as she becomes the face of the Los Angeles Sparx. Her game-day appearances have made her as famous as her shot blocking has done so far in her rookie season in the WNBA. Enough to warrant her a chance to meet Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani. But something from that meeting ended up being talked about on social media.
Before today’s game against the Arizona Diamondbacks, MLB’s biggest superstar met the Sparks’ newest rookie. The meeting was made possible by New Balance, who sponsors both Shohei Ohtani and Brink. When they met, they greeted each other. Then Brink asked Ohtani who was taller, to which he replied it was her.
She wanted to meet you. She want to watch your game.Shohei Ohtani said
The moment Ohtani said this, Cameron Brink broke out giggling. Suggesting that she did not expect to hear that from Ohtani. Ohtani’s wife, Mamiko Tanaka is a former basketball player. Much like Brink, she too played the center position. Which is why there was a mutual appreciation between the two. Brink talked about possibly making the Olympics, where she could meet Tanaka.
Brink and her fellow Los Angeles Sparx rookie Rickea Jackson then followed it up by throwing their first pitches at Dodger Stadium. But after the dust settled, fans watching the video were left confused with the Los Angeles Dodgers superstar.

For Shohei Ohtani, life as a baseball player in the United States of America could not be any bigger. After starring for the Los Angeles Angels for 5 years, he signed the largest contract for any professional athlete with the Dodgers. However, all that came dwindling down when his interpreter, Ippei Mizuhara was charged with defrauding Ohtani to pay for his gambling addiction.
But in this exchange with Brink, Ohtani is speaking English fluently. Prompting fans to ask the obvious question. Check out some of those below.
