A watch by Shohei Otani is a “priceless” gift.
Angels pitcher Shohei Ohtani gets excited behind the scenes when he presents a luxury watch to Cardinals outfielder Lars Nutvar, who was a fellow member of the Japanese national baseball team “Samurai Japan”. Provided Otani plays together again as Japan’s representative at WBC 2026 three years later, he will present his own wristwatch to Nootvar. In response to the shocking fact, it was called “It wasn’t ready” and “It seems to be more valuable than a brand new watch”.
Ohtani and Nootvar are set to meet again in the regular season for a three-game series beginning May 2 in St. Louis. However, it was a gift in anticipation of the 6th WBC in 2026, which should be “fighting together” in a “game”.
Fans who knew this behind the scenes were shocked, saying, “Absolutely priceless” and “This is something you can only brag about.” In addition, voices said, “I would be happy if I could get it from Mr. Otani” and “I will keep it with me for the rest of my life.”
