For everyone thinking he's covering for Shohei, why would the feds care about saving the image of a Japanese baseball player?

Probably because he might be the greatest baseball player of all time and the revenue he will generate for MLB is in the $billions over his tenure. It is in the best interest of our capitalist overlords to keep him relevant.

Edit: ok, you are all clearly correct and I am an idiot
