Shohei Ohtani says his interpreter stole money from his account and 'told lies'

Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani spoke to the media on Monday for the first time since his former interpreter became wrapped up in an alleged sports gambling scandal. Ippei Mizuhara, 39, was fired last week as Ohtani's translator after attorneys for the Japanese phenom say he was the victim of a “massive theft.” The IRS is conducting a criminal investigation of Mizuhara and Major League Baseball is conducting its own internal probe.

Bowyer's attorney, Diane Bass, said Bowyer's home was searched by Internal Revenue Service, Homeland Security, and FBI agents in October as part of an investigation. No charges have been filed, she said, and his team was negotiating with federal authorities regarding a possible outcome.
