Shohei Ohtani sends Ashley Kelly, wife of Dodgers reliever Joe, a Porsche as thank you for husband's jersey number

Ashley Kelly's #Ohtake17 social media campaign for Shohei Ohtani to sign with the Los Angeles Dodgers and take her husband's No. 17 has paid off.

First, Ohtani, the duel-threat superstar, signed a massive 10-year, $700 million deal to join the Dodgers, bolstering an already strong World Series contender. Secondly, the wife of Dodgers relief pitcher Joe Kelly offered up her husband's No. 17, while also changing the name of couple's baby, Kai, to ShoKai. It all led to Ohtani thanking them with a special gift.

On Saturday, Ashley Kelly opened her front door to a special delivery from Ohtani: A new Porsche.
