On this episode of the Three-Inning Save podcast, we talk with Bill Plunkett, author of the new book, ‘LA Story: Shohei Ohtani, the Los Angeles Dodgers, and a season for the ages.’.
Bill has covered baseball for four decades, including as a Dodgers and Angels beat reporter for a number of outlets. Currently he covers the Dodgers for the Southern California News Group.
Plunkett’s book chronicles Ohtani’s first season in Los Angeles, a whirlwind beginning with his free agency, to South Korea, to fraud and gambling debt by his longtime friend and former interpreter Ippei Mizuhara. Ohtani overcame that, even in a season in which he did not pitch, he won his third MVP award with the first 50-homer, 50-steal campaign in baseball history, and helped the Dodgers to a World Series championship in his very first taste of the postseason.
