Shohei Ohtani admits to feeling nervous before the Los Angeles Dodgers opening day matchup with the Chicago Cubs in Tokyo.

It has paid off in a big way, as the likes of Shohei Ohtani, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Roki Sasaki and surely more to come were long favored to sign with Los Angeles – an expected future which came to fruition for those three stars.

Before showcasing his talents stateside, Shohei Ohtani used to ply his trade for Nippon Professional Baseball's Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters.
