Press Coverage Information   「MLB Legend A-Rod to Tell Why Shohei Ohtani is G.O.A.T」 【Guest】Alex Rodrigues（A - Rod）（Ex Yankees） Yoshio Itoi（Ex Hanshin Tigers）、Ami Inamura（Talent）、KLP48

　This year's MLB headline features World Champion Los Angeles Dodgers player Shohei Ohtani. His 50-50 season (50 home runs, 50 stolen bases) marked the first-ever achievement of its kind in Major League history. The impressive feat of accumulating both home runs and stolen bases will be discussed in a talk event featuring Alex Rodriguez (A-Rod), who in 1998 achieved the 40-40 milestone (42 home runs, 46 stolen bases) with the Seattle Mariners and also won the home run title, and Yoshio Itoi, a powerful hitter who recorded 171 home runs and 300 stolen bases in Japanese professional baseball, as well as winning the stolen base title in 2016 with 53 stolen bases. The event will be moderated by the baseball-loving talent Ami Inamura, who is familiar to fans of the sport from "Professional Baseball News." A-Rod will also share behind-the-scenes stories from the intense World Series battles.

　Additionally, the talk event will feature KLP48, the artist group that debuted in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on August 18. As aspiring global artists, they will join A-Rod to discuss the journey to be becoming number one in the world.
