Tim Donaghy, the former NBA referee who did prison time after admitting he bet on games while officiating in the early 2000s, does not believe Los Angeles Dodger star Shohei Ohtani’s assertion he did not know about his interpreter’s gambling addiction.
“I think they were very smart to get that under the rug as quickly as possible and say that he had nothing to do with it, and basically have this other guy take the fall for everything,” he added. “When you look at the amount of bets he was placing, obviously he had some type of addiction. It’s not like he could just turn it off when he had baseball seasons. There’s no doubt in my mind that he not only bet on baseball, he bet on Ohtani’s game, and I think Ohtani was right there with him knowing what he was doing,” he said.“Well, back in the ‘70s and ‘80s, I wish I’d have had an interpreter. I’d be scot-free,” Rose, who had a history of gambling, said in a video posted to social media.
