◆ "He was a great person" Diamondbacks manager Lovullo's personal charm of Shohei Ohtani "He's a really great person" This is what Diamondbacks manager Trey Lovullo said about Ohtani. Lovullo had an interaction with Ohtani when he was in charge of the National League at this season's All-Star game. He looked back on that time as follows. "I sat next to him on the bench. He seemed like a normal young man. But he had a great presence. We usually play against each other, so I was watching Ohtani on the bench on the other side of the field. He hit a home run against the Diamondbacks, but at the All-Star game, after rounding the bases, he came back to the same bench. I was happy to high-five him. It reminded me that we're on the same team." Lovullo seemed happy to have been able to fight alongside Ohtani. It seems they also talked on the bench, and he was impressed by Ohtani's good personality. "I spent a little time with Ohtani. We laughed. He's a quality person and a great player. The best thing about the All-Star Game is being able to spend time with those kinds of players. You get to have all the best players in the same space at once." Manager Lovullo has ties to Japan, having played as an infielder for Yakult in 2000 during his active career. When asked if he could have imagined a player like Ohtani emerging at the time, he surprisingly answered "Of course." "When I was active, I played against some incredible players. Matsui (Hideki Matsui), Takahashi (Yoshinobu Takahashi). Takahashi was an incredible talent. I have nothing but respect for them. I also respect players from overseas. Ohtani is one of them. Ohtani is fun to watch. He's a special player." Having played with many great players in Japan, Manager Lovullo seems to have had a special relationship with Ohtani. And having actually interacted with him and experienced his personality must have made him even more of an Ohtani fan. This season, Otani has taken the MLB by storm with his incredible record-breaking performances and superhuman performances. He has become the face of MLB that everyone wants to cheer for, but his charm doesn't end with his play. He is also admired and respected by many for his personality and humanity. So, in this video, we would like to introduce in detail the charms of Otani as spoken about by MLB managers. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ◆About BGM materials Download sites ・Free BGM ・Music materials MusMus → https://musmus.main.jp/ ・DOVA-SYONDROME → https://dova-s.jp/ ・NoCopyrightSounds → / @nocopyrightsounds
