Mookie Betts Has Advice For Shohei Ohtani: Get Some Sleep Now Before The 'baby Comes'

Shohei Ohtani and his wife Mamiko Tanaka are expecting their first child . Ohtani's Los Angeles Dodgers teammate Mookie Betts has some advice.

"He should get his sleep now," Betts said, speaking Tuesday in Tokyo. "Because when the baby comes he won't get any."

Betts has two children and knows from experience.

Betts, on a promotional tour for a Japanese tea brand, took only a few questions in a very brief interview session at a local hotel.

As expected, the questions were about Ohtani and rookie pitcher Roki Sasaki , who just signed with the World Series-champion Dodgers.
