Shohei Ohtani isn't human. On the mound, he pitched six scoreless innings and recorded 10 strikeouts along the way. At the dish, he went 3-for-3 with three home runs and a walk.
There's been over 200,000 games since the start of baseball....to say this was the greatest performance by a player is saying something. I agree it was...
Maybe we can't remember when humans were like that. There was that guy babe that pitched and hit a few balls out of the yard. Athletes left baseball when we got the fat guy rule, aka Designated Hitter. The Dodgers have a farm system called Japan. This is the two hole era for baseball. Waiting for them to play for All American Points.
Dinosaurs used to walk in California too. So what? So, is the ball juiced? The bats corked? The outfield walls closer to the plate? The pitchers are not throwing as hard? The bases are closer together? I couldn't care any less about baseball. ANY pro sport for that matter, but when a pitcher throws 6 scoreless innings and HITS 3 HOMERS IN A SINGLE game, I give him ALL the credit he deserves. And as far as the LA team using Japan as a farm system? The other teams better wise up.
Woke up at 1:00 to go to the bathroom, checked the score game 3, it was tied 5 all-stayed awake to see the 18 inning marathon--this series has to be one of the best ever and Ohtani pitches tonight, by the in the 18 inning game he had 2 homers, 2 doubles and was on base 9 times-he is still the best player in modern baseball
Not sure when his contract is up, but, he's going to be the richest player in MLB history. The Jay's won't be pitching to him the rest of the series.
