2.3.37A 《从小镇跑向世界的大谷翔平》Story
Welcome to 听故事说中文, the podcast where stories come alive to help you improve your Chinese language proficiency and cultural competency.
Today's episode is about one of the most extraordinary athletes of our time — Shohei Ohtani. But we're not starting with his record-breaking stats or his World Series moments. We're going back much further than that — to a quiet town in Iwate, Japan, where a young boy would throw a baseball against a wall for hours, just to hear it bounce back.
This story is told in natural, flowing Chinese, and it's a beautiful one. Let's get into it.
