With the Dodgers scheduled to play a Saturday exhibition contest against the Tokyo Dome’s normal tenant, the Yomuiri Giants of Japan’s Nippon Professional Baseball league, Roberts wondered whether there might actually be more Dodgers gear populating the crowd.

The Los Angeles Dodgers arrived at Haneda Airport (previously known as Tokyo International Airport and often abbreviated to Tokyo-Haneda) in Japan to plenty of excitement and a massive wave of fans ahead of playing in the Tokyo Series next week.

Ohtani gave the thousands of fans who filled the seats at Tokyo Dome exactly what they were hoping for with a two-run home run off Shosei Togo that was the highlight of the Los Angeles Dodgers’ 5-1 win over the Yomiuri Giants in an exhibition.
