Published · Leaked on

On Dec 8, 2023, reports said Shohei Ohtani was flying to Toronto. At 22:11 UTC, @BNightengale posted that Ohtani was not in Toronto, not on a flight there, and at home in Southern California.
SI documented the conflicting reports: Jon Morosi posted at 4:01 p.m. ET that Ohtani was en route to Toronto, and Nightengale contradicted it just over an hour later. MLB.com later reported Ohtani’s 10-year, $700 million contract with the Dodgers.
Debunked: the Toronto flight report. The X post here is the debunk, not the rumor.
