SEÚL — Mai Fukuo estaba comprando un regalo para un amigo. Hideki Chiba estaba en la misma tienda en la zona de Shinjuku en Tokio buscando algo para su suegro. Ambos eligieron algo en azul —el color de los Dodgers de Los Ángeles. Esto refleja la revolución de color que es evidente en los últimos meses en Tokio desde que Shohei Ohtani pasó de los Angelinos —y su esquema de color rojo— para firmar por 10 años y 700 millones de dólares con los Dodgers.
El mánager de la tienda Hayato Daido estimó que el 60% de las ventas son artículos de los Dodgers, o más específicamente camisetas, jerseys, llaveros de Ohtani. El asistente de mánager Takato Suzuki sugiere que puede ser hasta el 70%. Daido aseguró que la venta de artículos relacionados con Ohtani representan “cuatro o cinco veces” más que antes de que llegara a los Dodgers en diciembre.
