Dodgers’ Shohei Ohtani Passes Hideki Matsui for Most MLB Homers by a Japanese-born Player

Quick Glance: Shohei Ohtani Sets New Record for Most MLB Homers

Los Angeles Dodgers slugger Shohei Ohtani has broken the record for the most homers hit by a Japanese-born player in Major League Baseball.

During a game at Dodger Stadium, Ohtani hit an impressive homer that flew into the right field bleachers off pitcher Adrian Houser of the New York Mets.

With this homer, which was Ohtani's 176th in his six years in the MLB, he surpassed Matsui, who played the final 10 years of his 20-year pro career in North America.

Ohtani's record-breaking blast traveled 423 feet and put the Dodgers ahead 2-0. Prior to this, Ohtani had not hit a homer in seven consecutive games.

Quick Glance: South Korea Objects to Japanese Leaders' Yasukuni Shrine Offerings

South Korea expressed deep disappointment on Sunday over Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida's offerings at the Yasukuni Shrine and urged Japanese leaders to show repentance for the country's wartime past.

The shrine is viewed by Beijing and Seoul as a representation of Japan's historical military aggression due to its inclusion of 14 Japanese wartime leaders among the 2.5 million war dead honored there.

The South Korean government calls on Japanese leaders to confront history and demonstrate sincere repentance, which would be a crucial step towards enhancing relations between the two countries.

Despite progress in the South Korea-Japan relationship, particularly in security cooperation, the offerings made by Kishida and some cabinet members at the Yasukuni Shrine have sparked protests from South Korea.

Quick Glance: Ippei Mizuhara Remains Free Despite Bank Fraud Charges on $25,000 Bond

Former interpreter for baseball star Shohei Ohtani from the Los Angeles Dodgers surrendered to authorities and later appeared before the U.S. District Court.

Ippei Mizuhara turned himself in on Friday and was subsequently released on an unsecured $25,000 bond, commonly referred to as a signature bond. This arrangement allowed Mizuhara to secure his release without needing to provide any cash or collateral.

United States Magistrate Judge Maria A. Audero also stipulated that Mizuhara must undergo treatment for his gambling addiction related to the sports betting scandal. Prosecutors alleged that he exploited his personal and professional connection with Ohtani to steal over $16 million from the player's bank account by occasionally posing as Ohtani to bankers to cover his gambling expenses.

On Friday, Mizuhara only responded to the judge's inquiries by answering 'yes' when Audero asked him if he comprehended various aspects of the case and his bond conditions.
