Shohei Ohtani's Dodgers Jersey Broke Fanatics' Record in Sales
The Los Angeles Dodgers and Shohei Ohtani. Two of the biggest names the sport of baseball has to offer are now linked forever.
Ohtani is officially a Dodger, and those are the five greatest words a Dodger fan can hear. This pair is primed for greatness, and their effect on each other is already showing.
According to Fanatics.com, the Shohei Ohtani Dodgers jersey has broken the record for jersey sales in the first 48 hours. It passed Lionel Messi's sales for his Inter Miami jersey.
No offense to Joe Kelly and Miguel Vargas, but Ohtani will be the greatest player ever to don the No. 17 in Los Angeles.
This comes as no surprise, though, as Ohtani is a superstar not only in the States but also globally. The native from Oshu Iwate, Japan, is the most popular professional athlete in all of sports. Combine that with the fact that he plays for one of the premium franchises in baseball, and you have record-breaking sales numbers.
If you haven't bought your Dodgers Ohtani jersey yet, make sure you get yours as soon possible, as they're selling fast.
The Dodgers-Ohtani era is officially here, and fans aren't waiting to welcome him to Los Angeles.
