June 20 – Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani could be back in the Los Angeles lineup on Saturday after missing one game for the birth of \u200bhis second child.<\/div>\n
Ohtani was not present Friday night due to \u200cthe baby’s impending birth when the Dodgers defeated the visiting Baltimore Orioles 6-5.<\/div>\n
The Dodgers declined to place him on the paternity list — he could have missed up \u200bto three games — anticipating his quick return to the team. \u200bManager Dave Roberts told reporters he expected Ohtani would play \u2060this weekend against the Orioles, and perhaps even Saturday.<\/div>\n
Right around midnight \u200blocal time, Ohtani posted to Instagram that his wife, Mamiko, had given \u200bbirth.<\/div>\n
Ohtani, who is notoriously private, posted no details about the baby’s gender or birth weight. His announcement included a photo of his beloved dog, Decoy, as well as \u200ba newborn’s feet sticking out from a blue blanket.<\/div>\n
“We are again \u200boverjoyed to experience this wonderful day in our lives together,” read a note from \u200cOhtani \u2060and his wife included with the announcement.<\/div>\n
“Thank you for being born safely. We would also like to express our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has supported us throughout this journey.”<\/div>\n
Roberts said he found out “only recently, \u200bvery recently” about \u200bthe pregnancy.<\/div>\n
Ohtani announced \u2060the birth of their first child in April 2025 in the same way. At the time, he revealed \u200bthey had a daughter. And while her photograph \u200bhas not \u2060made it to social media, references to milestone events, such as Mother’s Day, have included a touch of pink.<\/div>\n
The couple could have been signaling \u2060with the \u200bblue blanket that Baby No. 2 is \u200ba boy.<\/div>\n
Just seven hours after the post went up on Instagram, it had 1.6 million “likes” \u200band many congratulatory comments written in both English and Japanese.<\/div>\n
