While April Fools' Day might make it hard to trust the news, eBaseball: MLB Pro Spirit has a solid, exciting update that fans can rely on. The game is introducing a new in-game scouting event called the Ohtani Selection, named after the series ambassador, Shohei Ohtani. This event, which runs until April 8th, showcases six hand-picked players by the Dodgers star himself, split evenly between batters and pitchers.
On the pitching front, fans can look forward to adding Zac Gallen from the Arizona Diamondbacks, Ryan Helsley from the St. Louis Cardinals, and Tarik Skubal from the Detroit Tigers to their roster. For those interested in bolstering their batting lineup, Adley Rutschman of the Baltimore Orioles, Mookie Betts of the Los Angeles Dodgers, and Steven Kwan of the Cleveland Guardians are the stars to watch.
**Play ball!** This latest event coincides with a significant milestone for eBaseball, as MLB Pro Spirit celebrates surpassing five million players. While baseball might not enjoy the same global popularity as soccer, it remains a beloved sport across the Pacific region.
Ohtani's interview, linked above, not only provides insight into his selection process but also shares his personal views on the chosen players. It's a must-watch for anyone curious about his perspective on these top-tier athletes he's faced on the field.
