Dodgers slugger Shohei Ohtani claimed in court papers this week that his former interpreter is in “wrongful possession” of valuable baseball cards that rightfully belong to him. Ohtani is seeking to recover $325,000 worth of baseball cards that he claims onetime assistant Ippei Mizuhara improperly bought earlier this year, according to a U.S. district court filing by the player and his attorney, Blair Berk.
