The team did not have an immediate comment Wednesday. Mizuhara's firing was confirmed by Major League Baseball. After college, Mizuhara was hired by the Boston Red Sox as an interpreter for Japanese pitcher Hideki Okajima. In 2013, he returned to Japan to translate for English-speaking players on the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters. That’s where he first met Ohtani, who joined the team that same year.
Mizuhara said he incurred more than $1 million in debt by the end of 2022 and his losses increased from there.
