Excitement was in the air as Blue Jays right-hander José Berríos prepared for his very first huge charity drive back home. Everyone, including Berríos, was eagerly awaiting where Shohei Ohtani may sign. It seemed like there was a chance the two-way superstar would become his new teammate, adding to the anticipation.
Unfortunately, Ohtani announced his signing with the Dodgers just as Berríos arrived at Estadio Roberto Clemente Walker for his La Gente de Barrio Home Run Derby and Celebrity Softball Game, creating a buzz in the air that was hard to ignore.
