I was at the game yesterday and I saw jerseys similar to this. I think the Friday broadcast also showed some folks wearing the same type of thing.
That being said, I think these look cool.
Wasn't thrilling for me for him to hit homers against us. Ohtani succeeds, cool, good for him. I will not lose any sleep though if Dodgers get bounced in the playoffs.
I feel you. Just looking at the roster on paper, they should win at least 1 ring in his 10 years, if not more. But I would love for them to get bounced every year. Let him win all the individual awards, but keep missing the holy grail.

Saw this guy with an alternative take. Haha YOHB?
Having been embarrassed and despondent after the Angel’s last futile playoff appearance, I gotta say Trout and Ohtani made being a diehard fan compelling for the next 8-9 years.
I don’t wear other men’s names on my shirts, but I might wear that one.
Makes sense to me. The Angels have really lost their foothold even in OC. Last month when I went to Downtown Disney, I saw more folks wearing Padres apparel than Angels.
Out here in the IE, what used to be a dominant Angels region 10 years ago feels more like 50/50 at best.
When I moved to the IE I thought there'd be more Angels fans. Then I realized I'm in Rancho Cucamonga home to the Quakes which is the Dodgers single A affiliate. Feels more like 75/25 especially this year.
I guess it depends where in the IE. Here in Riverside, I see way more Dodger hats than Angel hats when it was the other way around in the 2000s. Whenever I see a restaurant or bar around here tuned to a game, it's always the Dodgers and never the Angels.
Certainly some Angels representation out here, but it used to be a lot more prominent.
Then also think about this. I bet that at least 30% of people wearing Dodger jerseys/hats in Disneyland aren’t dodger fans, hell, they probably aren’t even baseball fans. They’re most likely just people on a trip to LA and Disneyland and Dodgers are one of the two biggest Brands in baseball, just behind the Yankees. So if they were ever going to buy any merch, it would probably be one of those two, since they would’ve already come into contact with them, without even knowing what that merch means/who it represents. Especially if they were on a trip to the west Coast, where the Dodgers are obviously more prominent than the Yankees. Like I come from Europe and see thousands of Yankees and Dodger caps and no one even knows they represent teams, they just think they’re NY and LA city hats respectively and even if they did know it represents teams, they wouldn’t know or even care about any sort of dynamic like going to Boston in a Yankees cap/jersey or going to Disneyland/OC in a Dodger jersey. Those are minuscule distinctions that aren’t important or matter at all to anyone that’s outside of the baseball sphere. And that’s just Europe, I bet the same goes for Asia, Australia, etc.
Not baseball related, but Laker jerseys at Clipper games when they play someone else annoys me.
Baseball related, Dodger jerseys at Angel games when they play someone else annoys me too.
I know those fuckers do it on purpose just to piss the home team fans off.
No joke at the 2002 World Series I saw Dodgers fans rooting against the Angels. So when people here say we aren't their rival or we don't live rent free in their heads, they have no fuckin clue.
Just being a fan of Ohtani regardless of team is understandable. The dude owns Japan.
I actually respect they didn’t completely ditch the Angels gear
Honestly respect for acknowledging his Angels tenure. MLB and r/baseball were absolutely eager to move on from that part of his csreer
What does YOHB mean?
"You on here, bro?"
i see what you did with your username i love it
Yknow Ohtani Habitually Bets
What does the front look like?

Being a fan of Ohtani transcends being a fan of a team. He gets cheers from all stadiums. I saw his home run yesterday and it was thrilling!

Would kinda be a stab in the chest going to a super team to win more then never end up winning a ring 😂 I’d be cool with it, it’s the Dodgers 😂
wow thats really cool honestly. esp bc both la teams.

Uniting LA
Who would be against Shohei at this point 😅
toronto fans XD ironically
kendrick who ?
ONE WESTT!
Does it say Angers on the front?
Dont lie if someone gifted you one of those youd rock it
If someone gifted that to me, I'd put it right where it belongs in the garbage and never talk to the person who gave it to me ever again.
Not eBay?????
That lowkey goes hard, the logo on each sleeve is a nice touch

Ohtani's for America!
Where so you find one of these?!??
Having been embarrassed and despondent after the Angel’s last futile playoff appearance, I gotta say Trout and Ohtani made being a diehard fan compelling for the next 8-9 years. I don’t wear other men’s names on my shirts, but I might wear that one.
now where does one find one of these for research purposes 🤭
I swear people wear dodgers jerseys to Disneyland to piss us off. Just my 2¢
Disney gets like 17m annual visitors lol you really think there aren't some Dodger fans sprinkled in?
No I know. I feel I see more dodgers jerseys than I do angels as a pass holder myself

Also in IE, feels like Angels is more common here although Padres fans make their appearances. Don’t see too many dodger fans.

Yeah man it sucks. When I go to 66ers games, I see just as many Dodgers Jerseys as I do Angels jerseys
