"Yoshinobu Yamamoto is taking part in a special live talk show hosted by Nike later this month and there will be a lottery system in place where fans will be selected to be a part of the audience," Sanchez said. "So a couple of days ago, Nike Japan posted this number 18 graphic in blue with the caption coming soon. Well, it has now been revealed that Yamamoto is set to visit a city in Japan called Harajaku to star in his own talk show called Winner’s Mind on January 24. He will specifically focus on breaking down his mindset and life choices that have allowed him to develop into a superstar pitcher and win two World Series titles in his first two years with the Dodgers.
"Fans that are looking to attend Yamamoto’s talk show in Japan can apply for the lottery on Nike’s Japan Experiences website from January 12 up until January 19. Winners will be notified of their invitations starting on January 21 and they will be allowed to bring a plus-one to the event."
Nike Tokyo on Instagram will be live streaming the talk show so fans can watch at home.

Yamamoto is coming off one of the best postseason performances by a pitcher, starting Games 2 and 6 of the World Series with a 1.02 ERA. He also closed out Game 7 of the Fall Classic, tossing 2.2 innings the day after making his second start of the series in Game 6.
The right-hander's performance earned him MVP honors, and he's cemented himself as one of the best to ever don a Dodgers jersey.
He appears to have kept himself busy this offseason as his talk show with Nike is an exciting venture for the Dodgers star.
