Shohei is so great that the 40/40 moment (done by 5 other people only in history, by the way), was not even mentioned in this video. P.S. I know he talked about 50/50, but I mean 40/40 specifically. It's absolutely insane that I have to argue that it should have been included in the video, that's how great he is.
1:23, I was there as a neutral sitting in the 200s with my Angels' friend who was visiting for that week. I went to 2 other Angels' games in 2022 prior to watch Shohei and get his bobbleheads. But those 2 days where he carried them hitting and then pitching in June, were the best Shohei performances I have witnessed in person. INSANE!
When they said Ohtani should not be MVP, they woke the sleeping giant, poked the bear, grabbed the tiger by the tail, played with fire, opened Pandora's box, bit off more than they could chew, brought a knife to a gunfight, walked into the lion's den, shot themself in the foot, stole John Wick's car and killed his dog, stepped on Elvis's blue suede shoes, was made an offer they can’t refuse from Vito Corleone, got a knock on their door from 60 Minutes or heard a voice behind them say, “Hi, I’m Chris Hansen, from Crime Watch Daily”, lit the fuse, said hello to Tony Montana's little friend, drank the Kool-aid, unleashed the Kraken, drove off a cliff, wrote a check they could not cash, crossed the Rubicon, told Tommy Devito to go home and get his shinebox, leaped before looking, painted themself into a corner, tried to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs, went down with the ship, called Marty McFly a chicken, opened a can of whoop-ass, rocked the boat, ran into an immovable object, got their just deserts, stepped on a crack, pissed off Bruce Banner, entered the echo chamber, did not stay in their lane and know their role, assassinated Archduke Ferdinand, buried their head in the sand, ate the forbidden fruit, told Fonzie he was wrong, jumped the shark, robbed Peter to pay Paul, had a plan but was punched in the mouth by Mike Tyson, triggered karma and Murphy’s Law upon themselves, falsely accused the Count of Monte Cristo of treason, captained the Exxon Valdez, touched a nerve, messed with the wife of a jealous man, jumped out of the frying pan into the fire, checked into the Hotel California, counted their chickens before they hatched, put their foot in their mouth, missed the boat, got caught with their pants down, ran into a brick wall, let the dogs out, bombed Pearl Harbor, broke a mirror, walked under a ladder, crossed paths with a black cat, smoked in bed, dug their own grave, barked up the wrong tree, snatched defeat from the jaws of victory, did not look both ways before crossing the street, got involved with Amway, looked a gift horse in the mouth, checked into the roach motel, stirred up a hornet's nest, swallowed the poison pill, fell asleep on the beach on a sunny day, called the kettle black, was struck by lightning, bit the hand that feeds them, bent over to pick up a bar of soap in a men's prison shower, brought cannabis to Russia in luggage, screwed the pooch, made it completely FUGAZI and FUBAR, went on a fool’s errand, let the fox in the henhouse, built castles out of sand, ran with scissors, licked a frozen pole, put themselves in harm’s way, judged a book by its cover, was blinded by the light, put all their eggs in one basket, took the blue pill, effed around and found out, cried over spilt milk, got a taste of their own medicine, gave up their day job, went on a wild goose chase, lit a cigarette at a gas station, kicked against the goads, played in traffic, ran with the bulls, stepped on a rake, texted while drinking and driving, tempted fate, pissed in their own pool, threw caution to the wind, painted a bullseye on their back, slipped on a banana peel, dropped the ball, stirred the pot, crossed wires, slept with the fishes, danced with the devil, did not keep Will Smith’s wife’s name out of their mouth, answered an email from a Nigerian prince, tripped over a land mine, became a fly in the ointment, a monkey in the wrench and a pain in the ass, went down in flames, fell from grace, took a long walk on a short pier, got their comeuppance, plowed another man’s field, threw good money after bad, faced the music, fell into quicksand, burned their bridges, went to a Diddy freak off party, farted in a crowded elevator, did not play with a full deck, forgot to delete their search history, sowed the wind and reaped the whirlwind, accepted a Trojan Horse gift, went up the creek without a paddle, had their goose cooked, played Russian Roulette with a fully loaded gun, got hoisted on their own petard, doused fire with gasoline, cut off their nose to spite their face, fell on their sword, pooped their pants, crapped the bed, threw stones in a glass house, told Clint Eastwood they feel lucky, invested with Bernie Madoff or in Enron stock, sailed aboard the Titanic, tugged on Superman's cape, spit into the wind, pulled the mask off the old Lone Ranger and messed around with Jim.
He almost had it this year, just a couple BA points off. Since he is also a pitcher he could lead in more than just the 3 major categories for batters.
@nicholasbruce34 it's alright. You just don't remember. a lot of people said that. Even Angel fans... Especially during his first ever Spring Training. He did terrible. Got shelled on the mound and struggled to even make contact when hitting. Everyone was saying that he belonged in Single-A and didn't deserve a spot on the MLB roster. There was A LOT of racist people saying shit.
Best player who ever lived

The way he got the 40/40 with that walk of homer was sick
he's already cemented himself as GOAT.
I mean his resume speaks for itself. And there's MORE TO COME!!! Let's go Shohei!

Lead the WBC tournament in Hits, Walks, as a hitter and Also innings pitched.. is so crazy.
He is something else
Man if that guy can pitch gems after gems and win a world series, we'd be talking about this guy for the next century.
First fire video
Anybody who says ohtani wasn't the mvp clearly don't watch baseball OR hate the dodgers.
only mets fans disagree
When they said Ohtani should not be MVP, they woke the sleeping giant, poked the bear, grabbed the tiger by the tail, played with fire, opened Pandora's box, bit off more than they could chew, brought a knife to a gunfight, walked into the lion's den, shot themself in the foot, stole John Wick's car and killed his dog, stepped on Elvis's blue suede shoes, was made an offer they can’t refuse from Vito Corleone, got a knock on their door from 60 Minutes or heard a voice behind them say, “Hi, I’m Chris Hansen, from Crime Watch Daily”, lit the fuse, said hello to Tony Montana's little friend, drank the Kool-aid, unleashed the Kraken, drove off a cliff, wrote a check they could not cash, crossed the Rubicon, told Tommy Devito to go home and get his shinebox, leaped before looking, painted themself into a corner, tried to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs, went down with the ship, called Marty McFly a chicken, opened a can of whoop-ass, rocked the boat, ran into an immovable object, got their just deserts, stepped on a crack, pissed off Bruce Banner, entered the echo chamber, did not stay in their lane and know their role, assassinated Archduke Ferdinand, buried their head in the sand, ate the forbidden fruit, told Fonzie he was wrong, jumped the shark, robbed Peter to pay Paul, had a plan but was punched in the mouth by Mike Tyson, triggered karma and Murphy’s Law upon themselves, falsely accused the Count of Monte Cristo of treason, captained the Exxon Valdez, touched a nerve, messed with the wife of a jealous man, jumped out of the frying pan into the fire, checked into the Hotel California, counted their chickens before they hatched, put their foot in their mouth, missed the boat, got caught with their pants down, ran into a brick wall, let the dogs out, bombed Pearl Harbor, broke a mirror, walked under a ladder, crossed paths with a black cat, smoked in bed, dug their own grave, barked up the wrong tree, snatched defeat from the jaws of victory, did not look both ways before crossing the street, got involved with Amway, looked a gift horse in the mouth, checked into the roach motel, stirred up a hornet's nest, swallowed the poison pill, fell asleep on the beach on a sunny day, called the kettle black, was struck by lightning, bit the hand that feeds them, bent over to pick up a bar of soap in a men's prison shower, brought cannabis to Russia in luggage, screwed the pooch, made it completely FUGAZI and FUBAR, went on a fool’s errand, let the fox in the henhouse, built castles out of sand, ran with scissors, licked a frozen pole, put themselves in harm’s way, judged a book by its cover, was blinded by the light, put all their eggs in one basket, took the blue pill, effed around and found out, cried over spilt milk, got a taste of their own medicine, gave up their day job, went on a wild goose chase, lit a cigarette at a gas station, kicked against the goads, played in traffic, ran with the bulls, stepped on a rake, texted while drinking and driving, tempted fate, pissed in their own pool, threw caution to the wind, painted a bullseye on their back, slipped on a banana peel, dropped the ball, stirred the pot, crossed wires, slept with the fishes, danced with the devil, did not keep Will Smith’s wife’s name out of their mouth, answered an email from a Nigerian prince, tripped over a land mine, became a fly in the ointment, a monkey in the wrench and a pain in the ass, went down in flames, fell from grace, took a long walk on a short pier, got their comeuppance, plowed another man’s field, threw good money after bad, faced the music, fell into quicksand, burned their bridges, went to a Diddy freak off party, farted in a crowded elevator, did not play with a full deck, forgot to delete their search history, sowed the wind and reaped the whirlwind, accepted a Trojan Horse gift, went up the creek without a paddle, had their goose cooked, played Russian Roulette with a fully loaded gun, got hoisted on their own petard, doused fire with gasoline, cut off their nose to spite their face, fell on their sword, pooped their pants, crapped the bed, threw stones in a glass house, told Clint Eastwood they feel lucky, invested with Bernie Madoff or in Enron stock, sailed aboard the Titanic, tugged on Superman's cape, spit into the wind, pulled the mask off the old Lone Ranger and messed around with Jim.
Crazy I get to see the greatest ball player to ever live do it in real time.
Insane 🫨
Damn. And to think there were scouts and execs who didn’t think he’d be good in MLB. Seriously.
Damn I forgot this guy pitched
Great job
The Japanese scientists who made him in their lab must be so proud 😊 dude is unreal
やってる事がえぐすぎる
Bro tryna get the japanese viewers, we see you
wow video title in japanese. this guy ohtanis!
his story is michael jordan level, beyond the wildest imaginations
Next, triple crown maybe?
He almost had it this year, just a couple BA points off. Since he is also a pitcher he could lead in more than just the 3 major categories for batters.
It's crazy. It seems like it wasn't that long ago people were calling him "another over-hyped japanese bust". Now he sits on the throne of the MLB.
Barely anyone of any consequence ever said that, straight up trolling
