Shohei Ohtani's Wife Mamiko Tanaka Joins Dodgers WAGs for NLDS Game 2

Mamiko Tanaka, wife of Los Angeles Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani, was seen joining the team's WAGs (wives and girlfriends) for NLDS Game 2 against the Atlanta Braves.

Tanaka was among several Dodgers WAGs who posed for a group photo prior to the game, which was shared on the @ladodgerwives Instagram account. The caption for the post read, "Game 2, little less hot but we’re still [bringing] the heat 🔥." Tanaka was positioned in the second row of the photo, on the far left, wearing a black top.

This appearance follows Tanaka's presence at NLDS Game 1. In photos from that game, she was seen in the front row with the other WAGs, holding a bag from See's Candies. Ohtani and Tanaka have two children, and it is presumed they were left with a sitter during these games, especially considering the high temperatures in Los Angeles.

Shohei Ohtani, a prominent two-way player for the Dodgers, draws significant attention in the sports world. His wife, Mamiko Tanaka, tends to maintain a lower profile. Her appearances at Dodgers games, particularly during playoff series, offer a glimpse into the personal lives connected to the team.

The Dodgers are currently competing against the Atlanta Braves in the National League Division Series, with the team aiming to secure an advantage early in the series.
