Shohei Ohtani, the Japanese baseball star known for his exceptional skills as both a hitter and pitcher, has signed a record-breaking 10-year, $700 million contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers. This deal highlights the growing recognition of Japanese players in the international game and the confounding economics of professional sports.
