 You might tell me, Shoei Ohtani, here's what I'll tell you. I live and work in one of the top three sports cities in the U.S. If I'm going to rank the best sports cities in the country right now, I'm going to say Boston 1, Philadelphia 2, Detroit 3. Shoei Ohtani could walk into any store in the Detroit suburb in which I live and maybe have one out of ten people recognize him.
