watched 2 min of your video, and info is not factual. ohtani asked npb teams to not draft him b/c he wanted to go to mlb. nippon ham drafted him anyway. continuing as a two way player was one of nippon ham or kuriyama’s selling point. please either fix or remove this video.
Football Soccer have 4 billion fans around the world! Cricket have 2,5 billion fans around the world! Baseball is popular only Japan DomRepulic Venezuela Cuba Taiwan USA South Korea! Baseball do not have billion fans! Baseball about 300 million fans!!
Ever since he shed tears of frustration in high school baseball match,he has been surprisingly polite and beloved by Japanese people. Now he is playing for pros, playing in the major leagues, winning the WBC, joining the Dodgers and getting married, Despite suffering from betrayal by his interpreter and injuries, he is facing off against the Yankees in the World Series. Something that is like the climax of a Manga. I am so happy and excited that we Japanese can experience the same excitement as he did. Good luck Shohei, your and our dream is coming true.
They all do that in their high school baseball games. They even line the teams up and the losing team is expected to be sobbing. They take it seriously. It’s a thing over there. Not a negative. Him crying in frustration is what’s expected for a high school baseball star.
@@misanthropicservitorofmars2116 it's not that crying is expected it's that japanese high schoolers give and invest so much time and effort in their respective sport it's practically their life. So when they lose its like their entire world crashing down u can't help but cry.
There was a moment - I think it may have been after hitting his 49th hr in Miami - where the camera zoomed in on his face as he let the bat slide from his hand and stood for a few moments gazing up at the ball arcing high into the stands with a look of complete serenity, as if he were calmly watching the flight of a passing bird. In that expression there was no bravado or any emotional display - it was as if he was seeing exactly what he expected to see. That's my Ohtani moment.
Took my kids to their first Dodgers game. Ohtani does a walk off Grand Slam to reach 40/40. You can feel the electricity in the air. Lucky to see it twice in my life. Second only to the great Kobe Bryant.
One of the most impressive things about him is just how damn fast he runs for having such a huge build. He’s 6’5 in cleats and is buff af! I was at the dbacks game where he stole 3 bases like it was nothing and I realized that people need to see him in person to appreciate just how incredible it is to see someone that big running that fast. I’m a dbacks fan and dislike the dodgers to put it nicely 🤣 but I cheered for the dodgers all throughout the playoffs because I wanted that guy to get a trophy.
Kinda like Usain Bolt, his longer stride helps him cover more ground than the average player. Also as a pitcher himself, he can easily read pitchers pitching que's and probably helps him gain a second on his steals.
@@michaelurena7324 Except he weighs twice as much as Usain and is wearing a bunch of gear and not just in track runners shorts. But yeah his baseball IQ is insane and since he's a pitcher, he knows exactly how to lead-off.
Shohei's obsession with baseball is on par with Kobe's obsession with basketball. That almost psychopathic drive for the game, that relentless drive for victory. Shohei Ohtani will go down in history as one if not THE greatest baseball player to ever live. The world is lucky to have witness someone like him play.
I have been blessed to Witness the Jordan era of Basketball, where he dominated on both ends of the court! Now I get to Witness Ohtani, who I believe is the MJ of baseball. The guy is amazing 🤩⚾️🔥
I heard he became a two way player because Babe Ruth came to him in his dream and in perfect Japanese told him he was gonna be the greatest two way player of all time.
@@pothead8157 no no no, watch any japanese documentary series about Ohtani and you will see that is not true(I am half-japanese, and had been following him since the beginning), Kuriyama, manager/coach of Nippon Ham gave him an idea to stay in Japan first couple of years of PRO career(not go to MLB directly), mature as a player and try two-way in Japan first, then go to MLB. Kuriyama pulled up statistics about how foreign high-school graduates are successful in MLB and it was surprisingly low. And Ohtani never thought he was able to continue on PRO level to be a two-way player, and he accepted the offer of Nippon Ham
@@japiler Hello from Tokyo! You are right. If Shohei had joined the MLB straight out of high school as he had hoped, he would have been only a pitcher. We wouldn't have been able to see the home run hitter and prolific base stealer Shohei Ohtani that we are so excited about now. The Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters and manager Hideki Kuriyama (who was also the manager of Team Japan in WBC 2023) persuaded him, paving the way for him to become a two-way player and making it a reality. I can't thank them enough for that.
Ohtani is the man and is just built different, the Goat 🐐 Even on my Playstation video game of me as Shohei Ohtani with extra gold chip and points can't beat the real thing.
he's the real life Gorou Shigeno from the animated series Major. thats my favorite sports anime of all time. a young japanese kid who is obsessed with baseball and dreamed to be in the MLB, he is a two way player who got a killer fastball and hits homeruns so easily exactly like Shihei Ohtani. its like my fav character became a real person and more, he is a real GOAT and now he has won the 2024 world series. Congrats Shohie Ohtani.
Great great video, but one huge mistake….a wrong information here. Shohei didn’t insist on becoming a two-way player. Out of high school, he wanted to come straight to the MLB. He would have been a first player to have done so in Japan. So he asked all of the teams in Japan not to draft him but Nippon Ham Fighters insisted talking to him, while suggesting to become a two-way player. The manager, Kuriyama, suggested him that he could give Shohei the opportunity, become successful as a two-way- player, that might help him to have a better resume for the MLB. Fighter’s was willing to give him the opportunity which Shohei never thought was allowed in the professional baseball. He thought he had to choose one way or the other. So you can say that Kuriyama is the reason why we can enjoy this two-way-player ❤ I know Shohei wanted to play in the WBC but having Kuriyama as a manager, I’m sure he was more convinced to participate in it as well.
what’s beautiful about this is they did have respect for each other - Kobe recorded a video message for Shohei Ohtani to help the Dodgers recruit him on 2017, and Shohei said it helped seal the deal for the Dodgers in 2024 💙💜💛
I honestly hate baseball, but this man has shown me that not only can this be a beautiful and inspiring game, but there are people in it that will push beyond whatever genetics or narrative they’ve been told to achieve greatness. Massive respect
"Shohei Ohtani is being childish. His selfish desire to hit is taking at-bats from real players, angering his teammates and keeping him from becoming the player he could be"Harimoto after Shohei Ohtani hit 10 homers in 212 at-bats as a 19-year-old in 2014 “…He (Ohtani) is a child saying, ‘I want to do it, I want to do it (be a two-way player)….It’s absolutely disrespectful to other players” Harimoto when Ohtani won the Pacific League MVP award in 2016 "I'll grant you Shohei Ohtani can hit, but he could be the world's best pitcher if he focused on that. It's a mistake for him to think that he'll ever succeed at both in the majors."Harimoto after Ohtani was named the PL's 2016 MVP, Best Pitcher, Best DH "Maybe it's luck or the level of American pitchers has fallen," Harimoto that after Ohtani's three straight homers in mlb From a man that never make it to MLB
For this guy, there is no shame in admitting you are wrong... This guy seems like an important figure in the Japanese baseball scene... Just makes him look bad to double down Most of us were expecting Shohei to get hurt or be an average player playing both ways. Although he has been hurt half the time he has managed to play full seasons both ways and do it at an elite level both ways Very few of us thought he could do that if we are being honest All we can do now is just marvel... Because the next Ohtani wannabe is going to have to take those huge pay cuts risk injury to maybe get paid off years down the line
Hes a former Tokyo Giants player. There are so many authorities in Tokyo, who dislike MLB by the reason why they hold NPB, also even having no ability to produce players up to MLB level.
If my memory recalls well, he didn’t imagine himself to be a 2-way player in professional league. His only wish was to play in major league. So he was about to refuse all offers from Japanese baseball teams. However, Fighters made legendary presentation. They show their plan for him to be a 2-way player.
Immediately, it’s inaccurate. He didn’t refuse to sign with any team that didn’t make him a two-way player. He even said in an interview that he himself didn’t think that was an available option. He wanted to sign with the MLB so he asked Japanese teams not to draft him. But Nippon Ham did and offered letting him play 2 way if he signed with them. The coach in an interview said he watched him at the summer Koshien and saw him bat a high fly ball off the left field wall. He was a pitcher in high school. So the coach asked him in an interview if he wanted to play both ways. That’s how it happened.
He wanted to go MLB after high school, despite all NPB clubs want him in. Then there was a unique coach (he has become coach because his great love to baseball) came to him, at first face to face meeting, with astonishing proposal: 1. don't go to mlb now, it's not the proper time for developing your career 2. let's pursue two ways player, we will fully support you as well as your dream going to mlb ..... then the young talent gave a big knod. The rest, you knew it.
Love the video, and just realized how underrated this channel is. You really deserve a lot more subscribers/views. Could you please tell me what the name of the song at 15:07 was?
Love the support! Keep tuning in since I’ll be making videos of the same quality for many months to come. I don’t have the name at the moment but I can circle back
From doubted to undisputed, Shohei Otani's journey is nothing short of legendary. The 50/50 club, dominating as both a pitcher and hitter, and redefining what’s possible in baseball-he’s truly the GOAT. 🐐⚾
It is well-known in Japan that he has no interest in money. Even as an adult, he used to wear his sister's second-hand clothes. And even now, he doesn't go shopping. He is well-known for not going out drinking or having fun even if someone invites him. He has 20 sponsors, so he wears all his clothes that are given to him by his sponsors every day to work. His hobby is sleeping.
Amazing video, you'll def grow quick if content like this keeps coming. Also you should seriously consider doing a rewatch of the vid, potentially with a friend, just to check for errors. There were many times (at least 3) where the number you edited in on the screen doesn't match the number you say in the voiceover. It doesn't matter that much but it's definitely a little distracting
At the time of the draft, his goal was not to play the two-sword style, but to be active in the majors. However, Kuriyama, who was the manager of the Nippon Ham Fighters at the time, who evaluated his qualities, strongly argued to him that it was a shortcut to go to MLB via NPB than to the United States as a high school graduate. In addition, Kuriyama proposed to him to appoint a two-sword school, and Otani, who was convinced, joined the Nippon Ham Fighters.
He hasnt had a legendary post season. But man o man hes so clutch. First game in world series he gets a triple to set up mookie bets to tie the game later freddie hits grand slam. Withought that shohei hit they loose first game dude has been clutch all post season
If Ohtani wins the World Series against the Yankees, we won’t see another baseball player in our lifetime pass his GOATNESS. Even if he losses, we still won’t see another baseball player in our lifetime pass his GOATNESS.
The Nippon Ham Fighters were the ones who had the idea to let him be a two way player. He wanted to go to MLB right out of high school. They let him be a two way player as a way to entice him stay in Japan. Also he didn’t just sign with the Nippon Ham Fighters, the Nippon Ham Fighters drafted him.
ohtani didn’t “want” to be a two way player. he wanted to play in america, but he stated that going to a country where they don’t speak japanese at such a young age wasn’t really ideal. and when the fighters offered him being a two way player he signed with them.
I was just chilling, and I never thought much of having another GOAT as baseball is widely considered as a one way GOAT aka Babe Ruth, as yall know, he will never be as close as modern baseball but he was far ahead of his time, and now we finally get a debate or well crowning a new GOAT
He may be on the most uniquely dominant run in the history of the sport. He has 4 seasons of 8.9+ bwar in a row. Only a few players have ever done that. 3 mvps in just 4 years. The only player with a better stretch is barry bonds when he was fully juiced. Hes about to become only the second player ever to win mvp in both leagues. First to ever do it back to back. the previous highest war as a dh ever was 7. He put up 9.2 this year. He breaks multiple records every year. If he can bring his 2022 pitching with his 2024 hitting, we could see the first 15+ war season since the 1800s.
Nice video, but let's clear this up: they're not the 'Ham Fighters'-nobody's out there battling lunch meat. They're owned by Nippon Ham, so just call them the Fighters or Nippon Ham Fighters.
What has been your favorite Shohei Ohtani moment?
It’s still to come. There are no words. He is art. He is Picasso in cleats.

I was there all 3 games vs Miami. I have never felt magic on the baseball field like I did during those games. Because of him
what a great moment!
Thanks for sharing a great moment. Somehow I can easily imagine how it looked like.
Took my kids to their first Dodgers game. Ohtani does a walk off Grand Slam to reach 40/40. You can feel the electricity in the air. Lucky to see it twice in my life. Second only to the great Kobe Bryant.
he better than kobe bryant lmao
second to messi. messi is an alien not from this planet. Shohei is the GOAT from this planet
kobe isnt even top 10 all time lmao, stop it.
Kobe no where near LeBron

Ahhh yes a man of culture I spotted.
Ohtani manga would suck he is more of a genius character main character admires.
Ohtani read Major when he was young so for sure it somewhat influenced him to continue to be a two-way player
My man Shohei GOAT!!!!!
And some people still claim this honorable baseball god is the gambler, which is crazy.
GOAT or not, just the fact that he declined millions of dollars just to play in MLB earlier earns my utmost respect.
you need more subs mannn! what a great explanation

If Ohtani wins the World Series against the Yankees, we won’t see another baseball player in our lifetime pass his GOATNESS. Even if he losses, we still won’t see another baseball player in our lifetime pass his GOATNESS.
Goat - Ohtani
Babe ruth
Came back to say: GOAT
Loses not losses
He won 😮
Getting shohei for the giants wouldve been a game changer
Anaheim gotta be kickin' themselves for letting the GOAT go!
Spent a month in Japan just after they won vs USA. EVERY bar owner could not stop mentioning Ohtani.
The Nippon Ham Fighters were the ones who had the idea to let him be a two way player. He wanted to go to MLB right out of high school. They let him be a two way player as a way to entice him stay in Japan. Also he didn’t just sign with the Nippon Ham Fighters, the Nippon Ham Fighters drafted him.
and he just won it all last night
Ace of Diamonds 💎
ohtani didn’t “want” to be a two way player. he wanted to play in america, but he stated that going to a country where they don’t speak japanese at such a young age wasn’t really ideal. and when the fighters offered him being a two way player he signed with them.
Asian Pride!💪
When someone says you can't. Show the 🌍🌎🌏 that you can. If not try like HELL
I always thought Ichiro was the GOAT, then Ohtani came along...
Shohei - yes, 1 in a Billion yes with 50 50. That's Japan, produces A1 in a lot of things....
NOW SHOHEI OHTANI IS PLAYING BASKETBALL FOR THE MEMPHIS GRIZZLIES #17
I didn’t know Ohtani had that Kobe mentality in him.
Now you know!! He does it however woth humility and grace!!😀
6:58 should be the new MLB logo as a silhouette
Kobe’s spirit lives in ohtani. Both insanely beyond obsessed
700 million dollars is wild.
I was just chilling, and I never thought much of having another GOAT as baseball is widely considered as a one way GOAT aka Babe Ruth, as yall know, he will never be as close as modern baseball but he was far ahead of his time, and now we finally get a debate or well crowning a new GOAT
Hall of famer in only three seasons to me.
I'm not kidding when I say that he is this generation's Babe Ruth
Every little league child will have their 👀 on the 🏆👀. College ⚾ will be thinking that I can do it too. Work harder. Listen learn work
He may be on the most uniquely dominant run in the history of the sport. He has 4 seasons of 8.9+ bwar in a row. Only a few players have ever done that. 3 mvps in just 4 years. The only player with a better stretch is barry bonds when he was fully juiced. Hes about to become only the second player ever to win mvp in both leagues. First to ever do it back to back. the previous highest war as a dh ever was 7. He put up 9.2 this year. He breaks multiple records every year. If he can bring his 2022 pitching with his 2024 hitting, we could see the first 15+ war season since the 1800s.
Domination
The glaze is crazy
He’s the baseball god.
I hate the LA Dodgers with all my heart, but I can’t bring myself to say bad things about Shohei, Bets, or Freeman, those three are pure class.
Facts
OHTANI THE GREATEST
one in a billion ? theres 8.16 billion people on earth in 2024 so there are 7 more people that can do what he does ? he´s 1 in 8 billion.
Harimoto is Zainichi Korean
He is Goro Shigeno from anime called Major anime
Nice video, but let's clear this up: they're not the 'Ham Fighters'-nobody's out there battling lunch meat. They're owned by Nippon Ham, so just call them the Fighters or Nippon Ham Fighters.
Bro released his inner Goro Shigeno
I just wanna know what his diet is, and was growing up to be 6ft 4!
I would take him over Willie. Mays had throwing errors. Ohtani has only made a few base running errors. I know, he doesn’t play the field.
Don’t forget the World Series!
This is the John wick of fucking baseball
I would love to a movie made from the surgeon pointed of view, "Hands of God" .
