\u2018Arigato\u2019 chants break out in L.A. streets for World Series MVP <\/p>\n
Thousands of fans from across the region lined city blocks for the Dodgers parade Monday morning.<\/p>\n
Jane Lee made sure she was among them, securing a spot on Temple Street in the heart of downtown L.A.<\/p>\n
She had regretted not going to last year\u2018s Dodgers parade, so when the team recorded the final out in game seven, the Monterey Park resident knew she couldn\u2019t miss it this year.<\/p>\n
The lifelong Dodger fan said that before game seven, Shohei Ohtani had been her favorite Dodger.<\/p>\n
Now?<\/p>\n
It was pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto, the World Series most valuable player who became an unexpected hero in the deciding game, taking the mound and recording the final eight outs. <\/p>\n
But she still had love for his teammates.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t just want to see Yamamoto \u2014 I want to see everybody,\u201d Lee said.<\/p>\n
She held a sign a that called the Yamamoto the \u201cbest pitcher\u201d and included writing in Japanese. <\/p>\n
