Yoshinobu Yamamoto is riding on an ultimate high right now. Just a few days back, he was a part of the Los Angeles Dodgers crew, who won the World Series 2024. It is where he showed his mantle as one of MLB’s best pitchers. It’s hard to believe he achieved this feat with the team—a World Series win in his first season. Some players spend their lifetime achieving it. Yamamoto signed one of the most expensive multi-million dollar contracts with the Dodgers. And he proved he is worth every dollar of that $325 million contract!

But as if all these were not enough, there is something else brewing in the air too—love. The Japanese pitcher was seen spending an afternoon stroll, possibly shopping in the Rodeo Drive area of Beverly Hills, but Yoshinobu Yamamoto wasn’t alone. A stunning lady was with him, and when the photographer asked her name, she said Niki. Now, she is not just anyone but the stunning Japanese model Niki Kiwa. Well,’ good times are rolling for the Dodgers crew!

Is Yoshinobu Yamamoto starting a new chapter?

Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Niki Kiwa were seemingly busy with their shopping spree. Both were stylish yet comfortably dressed, looking no less than a Hollywood star. Yamamoto, moreover, deserved this spree—he had a stellar season and also got recognition from the City of Los Angeles as an ‘outstanding member of the community.’ While most of the games were notable this season, his World Series Game 2 was memorable. Yoshinobu Yamamoto pitched 6.1 innings, had four strikeouts, and earned one run, helping the LA Dodgers win.

While the LA Dodger star is now a known face in baseball, Niki Niwa, too, is now a familiar face with her appearance in Terrace House: Aloha State and Peanut Butter Sandwich. Plus, she has been making her stand in LA with her strong Instagram following. It’s no surprise that her beauty is captivating the city, as she has been ranked on the list of the 100 most beautiful faces of the world for three consecutive years. While they haven’t confirmed their relationship, it seems to be the start of a modern love story.

Josie Canseco and Johnny Manziel’s in a fantasy world 

There is another sport-world romance making all the noise. It’s between Josie Canseco, daughter of Oakland A’s star Jose Canseco, and former NFL quarterback Johnny Manziel. The two were first seen cozying up at Stagecoach 2024 back in April. They were in the Morgan Wallen concert, and ever since then, they have made it to many star-studded events and concerts. They were seen in the New York Fast Week’s Alexandra Wang event, and their appearance together got much buzzing.

Josie is a stunning model, and her fashion statement isn’t limited just to the ramp. She also does her OOTD posts, showing her love for fashion. Only recently, the fairytale-like couple was seen in a fantasy world. Yes, they were in a Harry Potter world, and Josie shared beautiful shots of the day with Johnny Manziel and the Hogwarts castle. While Josie Canseco is busy with her high-profile modeling career and endorsing luxury brands, Johnny Manziel has his own thing going. His NFL career was short, but he has been busy with his business endeavors. Together, they are turning into quite a power couple.
