Key Witness Takes Stand Against Former MLB Star Yasiel Puig Accused of Placing Bets With Illegal LA Bookie

This story had received 38140 impressions and counting on Thursday.

Hawaiian baseball coach Donny Kadokawa took the stand as one of the government’s key witnesses in their case against former Major League Baseball player Yasiel Puig. 

In November 2022, Puig agreed to plead guilty to lying to federal law enforcement officers regarding bets that he placed with an illegal sports betting operation. He faces up to five years in prison.  He would go on to change his plea. 

In 2025, a federal appeals court agreed with a trial court ruling that Puig's plea deal had not been accepted by a court. 

The government claims Puig lied to federal agents in 2022 when he denied he had been involved with the underground gambling organization that the bookmaker, former minor league baseball player Wayne Nix, operated in Southern California.

Kadokawa's testimony included allegations that Puig amassed massive gambling debts within days of wagering with Nix's gambling network.  Kadokawa claims he placed bets on behalf of Puig. 

“It was getting too out of hand for me,” Kadokawa said under questioning by Assistant U.S. Attorney Juan Rodriguez. “I didn’t know where this was going.”

Kadokawa referenced the $237,000 Puig allegedly owed Nix in June of 2019.

He continued to take the stand on Thursday, providing details of how Puig allegedly bet thousands of dollars on tennis matches
