Shohei Ohtani is publishing a children’s book

According to the summary of the book, Decoy is going to throw out the first pitch of the new season on Opening Day, but forgot his lucky baseball at home and must retrieve it before it’s too late.

Decoy, of course, is Ohtani’s actual dog, who became something of a sensation already. Decoy got his own bobblehead and threw out the first pitch at a Dodgers game last August.

Ohtani remains as good as ever, as his 32 home runs lead the National League at the All-Star break. He is also back on the mound as a pitcher and looking as good as ever there, too. Next year he’ll be a published children’s author, too. There may be no end in sight to his exploits.
