Federal prosecutors and former interpreter Ippei Mizuhara, who stole nearly $17 million from Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani to pay for gambling debts, filed dueling briefs to U.S. District Judge John W.

Federal prosecutors released an audio recording in which they say Ippei Mizuhara impersonates Shohei Ohtani in an attempt to wire money from Ohtani's bank account.
