"Cubs 3 - Dodgers 6" (19th, Tokyo Dome)

The opening series ended with two consecutive wins for the Dodgers. After the game, Dodgers Shohei Ohtani pitcher, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, and Roki Sasaki pitcher took a selfie on the field. Later, five Japanese players from both teams, including Cubs pitchers Shota Imanaga and Seiya Suzuki, also took a commemorative photo. Japanese staff members from both teams also joined in for a commemorative photo, smiling and interacting with each other.

Yamamoto, who became a hot topic for taking photos of Otani's press conference with his own smartphone near the entrance to the conference room, took a selfie with Otani and the others on his own smartphone this time as well. The three of them had warm smiles and looked like they were having a great time.

In fact, during this photo shoot, Yamamoto, sandwiched between the two tall guys, stretched up to adjust his height. MLB's official Instagram did not miss this, and posted a photo with the words "This is what happens when you're next to Shohei and Rouki," first without the feet of the three in the photo, and then a photo of Yamamoto stretching up as hard as he could, with the words "Behind the scenes" and "Behind the scenes of this photo shoot," along with a crying and laughing emoji. Moreover, a circle was made with a red pen around Yamamoto's feet as he stood on his tiptoes, and the third photo was just of Yamamoto's feet. They took note of Yamamoto's playful behavior.

American fans have responded to this post with comments such as "So cute," "Best photo!", "Her toes are cute," and "I love this photo ♥♥."
