Ohtani family 'overjoyed' to welcome second child

Congratulations are in order for the Ohtani family, which is now a party of four. Five, if you include Decoy.

Shohei Ohtani and his wife, Mamiko, have announced the arrival of their second child.

“We are again overjoyed to experience this wonderful day in our lives together,” Shohei and Mamiko wrote in a statement posted to Ohtani’s Instagram page. “Thank you for being born safely. We would also like to express our gratitude to everyone who has supported us throughout this journey.”

Shohei and Mamiko welcomed their first child, a daughter, in April 2025. Ohtani was away from the Dodgers during their 6-5 win over the Orioles on Friday. However, he wasn’t placed on the paternity list, and manager Dave Roberts said the four-time MVP could be back with the team as soon as Saturday.
