I am so grateful to my loving wife who gave birth to our healthy beautiful daughter. To my daughter, thank you for making us very nervous yet super anxious parents.

I would also like to thank the Dodgers organization, my teammates, and the fans for their constant support and kind words of encouragement.

The Dodgers' official X handle reacted with glee. "Baby Ohtani has arrived," the caption read. "Congratulations Shohei and and Mamiko on the birth of your daughter!" with a blue heart emoji. They also replied on Ohtani's post, "Can’t wait to meet the newest Dodger. 💙"

Baby Ohtani has a nice ring to it.

Ohtani, 30, sat out last night's game against the Texas Rangers on paternity leave, which meant the birth was imminent.

Today, we now know that the Ohtanis have a beautiful baby girl.

While of course Baby Ohtani will be a diehard Dodgers fan, she could very will be a WNBA superstar down the road given Shohei is 6-foot-4 and Mamiko is 5-foot-11 and is a former professional basketball player.
