Sports stars — they’re just like us.

The baseball world, and indeed, the sports world as a whole, was captivated by Shohei Ohtani’s free-agent pursuit.

Let’s start with six-time All-Star Joey Votto:

We are also Joey. We know the feeling.

Remember how the two-time MVP celebrated his recent accolades with an adorable dog with a mysterious name?

Ohtani’s new teammate Walker Buehler has a question about the four-legged creature.

Gavin Lucks woke up to some heartening news from the Dodgers’ rookie star.

Remember retired reliever Trevor Hildenberger?

Let’s just say his one appearance against Ohtani has never been forgotten.

Kike Hernandez is hoping for some help.

2022 NL Rookie of the Year Michael Harris II had no words.

Dodgers part-owner and Los Angeles sports legend Magic Johnson was pleased with Ohtani’s decision to come aboard.

Former NFL great JJ Watt is almost at a loss for words.

Biggie later endorsed Kansas City Chiefs superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes for Watt.
