The Red Sox didn't have many standout performers in their loss to the Giants on Thursday, but one newcomer turned some heads.

BOSTON -- Red Sox righty Naoyuki Uwasawa enthusiastically arrived for his first day in the Major Leagues, a Sunday Night Baseball matchup against the Cubs at Fenway Park. It has been a whirlwind few months for the 30-year-old from Japan, who signed a Minor League deal with the Rays after

Few in Japan want to believe national hero Shohei Ohtani could be accused of wrongdoing in the sports gambling scandal involving his ex-interpreter, Ippei Mizuhara.

During his Angels tenure, Maddon witnessed the close bond between Ohtani and Ippei Mizuhara. He discussed that and much more on Starkville.

The Dodgers are paying $700 million for Shohei Ohtani. That means his loyal fans in Japan will be paying big time for his merchandise.

Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani announced on social media Thursday that he is married.

The Japanese superstar only gave a few more tidbits about the relationship during a short interview on Thursday, saying he had known his new bride for three or four years.

When the Dodgers announced their first spring training lineup with all three MVP winners on Tuesday, the order of the names was different from what seemed like conventional baseball wisdom.

NEW YORK -- The Mets edged closer to filling out their bullpen with two additional arms on Friday, agreeing to terms on one-year contracts with right-hander Shintaro Fujinami and lefty Jake Diekman, according to sources.
