UNREAL: Shohei Ohtani Breaks SPORTS MONEY RECORD | USA Falls Short AGAIN in the WBC

Shohei Ohtani is transforming the Los Angeles Dodgers into a global powerhouse, smashing baseball and endorsement records alike. Will Ohtani’s worldwide influence—and unprecedented $125 million off the field—reshape the future of MLB’s superstar economics? Harry Ruiz and Travis Rodgers tackle the ripple effects of Ohtani’s fame, the Dodgers’ strategic spending, and how winning big ignites international fanbases. The show also examines Team USA’s shocking World Baseball Classic loss to Venezuela despite a star-studded roster featuring Aaron Judge, Bryce Harper, and Will Smith. Why did the offense falter, and does the WBC’s timing impact player performance? Hyeseong Kim's struggle at the WBC raises tough questions for Opening Day, as the competition at second base intensifies. All that and more on today’s episode of Locked On Dodgers!
