Yomiuri Giants manager Shinnosuke Abe resigns after being arrested in Tokyo on suspicion of assaulting his 18-year-old daughter. Multiple outlets report that police detained Abe following an incident at the family home, where he is alleged to have grabbed and physically forced his daughter during a dispute. One report says the daughter contacted local police after she was thrown to the ground while Abe was trying to intervene in a fight. Another outlet reports that Abe admits to the allegation. Abe, 47, resigns from his role as manager and issues an apology, saying he has caused trouble for fans, professional baseball officials, and the team, and that he is tarnishing the tradition of past Giants managers. The arrest and subsequent resignation end his tenure as the leader of Japan’s Yomiuri Giants, widely viewed as one of the country’s most prominent baseball franchises. A separate report also states that the daughter consulted an AI service before reporting the incident to police. Details of the allegations and any potential legal proceedings are ongoing.
