Sports Betting,Mathew Bowyer,Shohei Ohtani

A Southern California bookmaker who took thousands of sports bets from the former interpreter for baseball star Shohei Ohtani has pleaded guilty.

Los Angeles Dodgers' Shohei Ohtani celebrates in the dugout after scoring during the third inning of a baseball game against the Philadelphia Phillies in Los Angeles, Monday, Aug. 5, 2024. Mathew Bowyer, 49, entered the plea in federal court in Santa Ana. He also pleaded guilty to money laundering and subscribing to a false tax return. He's due to be sentenced Feb. 7.

Bowyer's prosecution follows several sports betting scandals that emerged this year, including one that led Major League Baseball to ban a player for life for the first time since Pete Rose was barred in 1989. Federal investigators say Mizuhara, who is scheduled to be sentenced in October, made about 19,000 wagers between September 2021 and January 2024. While Mizuhara’s winnings totaled over $142 million, which he deposited in his own bank account and not Ohtani’s, his losing bets were around $183 million — a net loss of nearly $41 million.

Federal prosecutors said Bowyer’s other customers included a professional baseball player for a Southern California club and a former minor league player. Neither were identified by name in court filings.
