Justice has come for Shohei Ohtani’s corrupt interpreter, who funneled millions of dollars from the baseball unicorn’s bank accounts to pay off his gambling debts.
The gambling ‘whodunnit’ became one of the biggest scandals in baseball this past decade.
As reported by ESPN’s Alden Gonzalez, Ippei was sentenced to 57 months in prison, also due to owe back $1 million to the IRS and $18 million in restitution to Ohtani. Mizuhara, born in Japan and slated to be deported, must report to prison on March 24.

The Chicago Blackhawks are ahead of only the San Jose Sharks in the standings this season, and while no one expected them to be world-beaters, the lack of improvement in Year Two of the Connor Bedard era might be making fans a little nervous.
And one of the biggest problems this season — oddly enough — has been the play of Bedard himself.
Sure, he’s got 46 points through 53 games and that’s solid, what has become clear is that Bedard’s game needs to be refined.
We all know he has the skills. He just needs to continue learning how to play at the NHL level.
Remember when Super Bowl Sunday was fun for the whole family?
Obviously, there’s a pretty big football game that day. But even if you’re not into football (or watching the same team win every single year), you could still get a kick out of the theatrics surrounding the game… the exciting coverage, the delicious party food, the Halftime Show and winning money in Super Bowl squares! And the best thing about Super Bowl Sunday is, of course, the commercials.
Well, they used to be anyway.

Spieth looked like his old-self during the first round of the WM Phoenix Open.
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — In his second event after returning from a lengthy absence, Jordan Spieth looked like his old self during the WM Phoenix Open on Thursday.
The three-time major winner carded a 3-under 68 on Day One, a round that featured plenty of theater.
NBA guard Dennis Schroder is stuck in a cycle of … “modern slavery.”
Schroder, worth an estimated $90 million from career earnings, gave a ridiculous take on the NBA’s trade deadline by comparing it to slavery.
For the 31-year-old German-born player, players getting shipped around without their input on the matter (crazy, right?) is comparable to dealing slaves, albeit millionaires.
From NBA fans to casuals, everyone found Schroder’s comments ridiculous.
College basketball is just the best. I know I write that every week, but every week delivers. The past seven days have been no exception. Each day, something crazy happens on the hardwood, so much so that even my weekly column can’t possibly include every story. But that’s not going to stop me from trying!

Sure, a Top 25 team beating a Top 10 isn’t always considered a massive upset.
