Shohei Ohtani donates masks to Japanese hospital workers

Los Angeles Angels two-way player Shohei Ohtani is doing his part to help hospital workers living on the frontlines of the global fight against the coronavirus pandemic.

Ohtani made a generous donation to the Japan Mask Project on Friday.

“I’m sure it’s hard for everyone,” Ohtani said in a statement translated by Angels public relations. “But many people including the healthcare workers, are working hard right now to solve this. I’m hoping that this will help them. I think we can support each other through this, with kindness, appreciation and the thought of one another.
