Kiké Hernández, Max Muncy and Joe Kelly express their support for Shohei Ohtani following allegations his former interpreter stole millions from him.
Kiké Hernández stood in the corner of a jam-packed Dodger Stadium interview room Monday and watched as Shohei Ohtani forcefully denied speculation that he bet on sports or knew that his former interpreter, Ippei Mizuhara, had allegedly stolen $4.5 million from him to pay off debts owed to an illegal Orange County bookmaker.
Ohtani reiterated several times that he is a victim, not a willing participant, in the scandal, and if his new teammates needed any convincing, they received it during the press conference. “We’re all behind the guy,” Dodgers third baseman Max Muncy said. “For me, where I come from, you're innocent until proven guilty. So the guy has told us face to face what he believes is the truth. That's what I'm going off of, and I believe him 100% I have his back on that.
