About The Betrayal of Shohei Ohtani

They were a team. Shohei and Ippei. They called themselves brothers. One was a young superstar destined for the Hall of Fame. The other was the hero’s valet – his translator, fixer, assistant, protector, and confidant. As Shohei Ohtani’s star rose to the heavens, Ippei Mizuhara kept him grounded. But in the spring of 2024, just weeks after celebrating Ohtani’s new 10-year, $700-million contract, their friendship was over. Someone had betrayed their best friend. From 30 for 30 Podcasts, the real story behind the scandal that almost ruined it all. Episodes drop Tuesdays and Thursdays.
