Miami Marlins fans, players, staff, especially Skip Schumaker... Thank you for elevating the game of baseball yesterday!!! Can't say this enough!!! Class acts all around!!!
I recommend watching "Shohei Ohtani Babe Ruth Commercial". Its beautiful!
We are all fans of Skip Schumaker now!
They understood the situation🤷🏻♂️ it’s baseball we knew it was coming before he even spoke..I hope ya did
We knew he could pitch 100mph. Then we knew he could hit 40hrs+. Now we find out he can he can run. What else Shohei.
He can play outfield.
Next is to play a position. I am sure he would be a gold glover, too.
50 50 20(wins)?
he played RF in Japan😊
He's now doing the anchor spot on NBC Nightly News in Japanese and Americans automatically understand him. Totally Centrist and no bias too!
His first hit was this 🤏🏾 close to being a HR too. Insane.
And just as close as making one of those doubles a triple and hitting for the cycle 🤯
Would it better better if it was a HR or if he had a triple so he could get a cycle?
I feel so fortuitous to watch a one of a kind player in making baseball history. Thanks to Shohei for bringing me back to baseball. LA Dodgers vs NY Yankees would be a fantastic World series this fall.
Amazing hitting performance! Oh yeah, he’s a pretty good pitcher too. 😮
next year he might pitch 7 shut out innings while doing something similar at the plate while stealing bases! you never know with him.
Last time someone was talking about the greates day in the history of baseball, was when Ohtani threw that shutout in the first game of the day, then hit two bombs in the second one. It's always Ohtani.
That was my all time best player performance in a game I have ever seen. This is my all time best offensive player performance I have ever seen. Both mind blowing. Thank you Shohei!
The greatest baseball player to ever play the game. Truly unbelievable what he is capable of.
Your mom could handle my balls better
Let's not go overboard.
@HouMat-if5fi
There is nothing overboard about that.
He,s the GOAT.
The most complete baseball player in history
@@lollymanna
Since Babe Ruth.
@@HouMat-if5fi
Nah. Baby Ruth is far behind Shohei Ohtani.
I'm convinced he's the greatest athlete in pro team sports. The other GOATS have contemporaries that can come close to them but there's nobody in baseball that can hit, run and pitch anywhere near his level.
Not Gretzky. Nobody in hockey has ever come anywhere near his records. One guy is getting close to his total goals for career but that's about it. I saw some guy post that if Gretzky had a batting average it would be .472
Othani might get there by the end of his career but right now 99 is still, by far the greatest team athlete of all time in terms of the gap between him and every other player in history.
@@doublestrokeroll those are accumulated stats. But there have been players that come close to his performances on a season to season basis. There is no mlb player that can do close to what Ohtani does. His closest peer as a hitter can't come close to his pitching and vice versa
みんな歴史の目撃者！
同じ時代に生きてて幸せ！
GOAT
He makes everyone better around him. Makes the game better.
Humble dude. Great role model.
Blessings to this gifted athlete! 👑
Ohtani is the superman in baseball !! 😂 his career is like a real life movie!
He was inches away from a triple and hitting for the cycle to go along w/ his historical day.
i was so pissed at this. just couldn’t celebrate because it was so close.
The cycle doesn’t really mean much lol
Would you rather hit four home runs, or hit for the cycle? You’re on crack if you pick the cycle
Would you rather hit two home runs and two doubles, or hit for the cycle? You’d better not pick the cycle
Nah bro thats overkill 😅
I mean his first double of the game could have been a homer in other parks
早起きして本当に良かった！現場ではないけれど、大谷選手の活躍をリアルタイムで、
歴史が生まれた瞬間を見ることができた幸せ。
Best player on the planet, in human history.
Ohtani passed Matsui’s RBI record, 116 (2005, Yankees), today.
Now, another 2 Japanese legends are waiting for Shohei to reach them:
55HR (Sadaharu Oh, 1964, Yomiuri Giants)
56SB (Ichiro, 2001, Mariners)
The Yomiuri Giants aren’t a major league team, no offense
What do the Yomiuri Giants have anything to do with the MLB?
Both are within reach. If he keeps his foot on the pedal and stays locked in, even with only a few games left, he can do it. Crazy!
Congrats to Ohtani going to MLB Postseason!
Congrats to MLB for having Ohtani in the postseason
Dude is out here playing My Career in MLB The Show😮
I was at the game - bro everytime he stepped up to the plate - the crowd went nuts . Those home runs , stolen bases man 6 for 6 10rbi all from one person . Dude it was sick
Usually this kind of over the top hyperbole with "best game ever" etc annoys me but what Shohei pulled off is legitimately insane.
It's one thing for Ohtani to have a 50/50 season. It's quite another if he manages to do it by hitting say 1 HR in a game to get to 50 HR's and perhaps a SB in another game to get to 50 SB.
Instead he went 6/6 with 3 HR and 2SB's and he also hit a double that came very close to being a HR. He nearly hit 4 homers, he also nearly hit for the cycle, he came close to getting a triple one play.
No player in baseball history has ever hit 3HR and gotten 2SB in one game before.
And he did it on the game that he became the first player in baseball history to reach 50/50
All of that is insane on its own but he also broke the Dodgers single game RBI record in the game with 10 RBI's!
And he also broke Shawn Green's all time Dodgers single season HR record yesterday with his 50th.
To call it a "record setting day" for him is a hilarious understatement.
He didn't just break records, he obliterated them in unbelievable fashion.
Oh yeah !51 & 51 is obliterating 42 & 46 or that reversed, whatever the hell it was by Soriano. Just call him Willie Babe Ohtani.
If GOAT means most complete baseball player ever, which it does to me, hands down Ohtani is that.
If you could have 26 Ohtanis on a team, they beat 26 version of any other player in history. He's a Unicorn Goat chimera. Perfect Baseball Player. I've never seen anything like him. I've been watching baseball since the '80s. G.O.A.T.
Yeah but, if you picked say, 10 Barry Bonds, and 16 of whoever you think the best pitcher in history is, they’d beat the 26 Shohei team handily
Virtually no position players also pitch at a high level, so even if Shohei was considerably worse, a 26 Shohei team would still be the best choice for that type of team
@@ifbfmto9338 exactly, you would need 2 players. Nobody would beat a team of Shoheis, just like a team of Michael Jordans would beat 12 versions of any other player. Magic might be 2nd. It's the best way to see who is the true G.O.A.T.
@@ifbfmto9338 I don't know. If it's Shohei Ohtani from 2022, he might beat anyone. He was 15-9 on the mound, but in 7 of his losses he gave up 2 earned runs or less. I'm not convinced Ohtani couldn't hold his own against Bonds.
@@yamamancha if they played an MLB season, Team Barry would quit, he'd never get Shohei out lol. If you picked a a great pitcher, Team Shohei would end the season with the 1st 0.00 ERA 🤣
Ya'll crazy if you think 26 Ohtanis vs 26 name your player ...Shohei would destroy, 162 and zero would be their record.
Ohtani knew he would get 50/50 eventually. You can bet on that.
LMAO, I thought they were in Dodgers Stadium, they're in miami and the crowd is going nuts XD
Bro its history, Skip Schumaker is an absolute gem of a man for pitching to Shohei
This is absolutely insane⚾️🧢⚾️🧢😮
He’s a 99 overall created player… he’s a cheat code!!
EA Sports is going to have to rename “The Show” to “The Sho”.
All The way from Australia! You are no idiot Buster! Shohei is the most insane athlete ever in my humble opinion
ESPN still not letting the public know that they falsely reported Ippei (interpreter) report as truth. But then making bank on the back end with Ohtani’s greatness
True 😊
One more thing, if Lux doesn't score on a wild pitch just before one of shohei home runs, he would of had 11 RBI. Unreal...
Those pundits and fans advocating for Lindor as MVP have gone silent.
This was the greatest offensive performance in a single game ever. It has some competition, such as the game in may of 2012 where Josh Hamilton of the Rangers went 5-5 with 4 HR and 8 RBI and hit a double for 18 total bases.
However, that was a meaningless game for Josh and the Rangers in mid may. Ohtani was doing this in a game that clinched his team a playoff spot. He did this 10 RBI game with 2 steals and got to 51 steals and HR's for the season with it.
Given the pressure, and given the significance of the game to his team, this was the greatest single game performance .
Congratulations to...Josh Gibson...for being the first 50/50 player.
Respect that he limited his celebration for his 51st since it was off of a positional player
He is an alien from other universe called NPB
Asians have become the absolute best baseball plays in MLB and the world. 👏
The greatest baseball player of all time.
The Bambino of the 21st century. Legend. History. Mr. Baseball.
Shohei Ohtani will break Bonds' single season Homerun record.
I doubt that.
This is TRUE futanari at its finest.
the 700 million contract was a steal for the Dodger.
We’ve been able to watch Brady, Bron, Steph, Tiger, Pat and now Shohei. We are spoiled
Ohtani the superstar, Ohtani the Samurai, Ohtani the *Super Saiyan!*
He also broke the record yesterday for most RBI in a single season by a Japanese player.
This would feel legitimately historical if MLB didn't limit pickoff attempts to hold runners and didn't increase the size of the bags. It's easier to steal bases now more than ever.
That being said, congrats to Shohei on an incredible season.
You say that as if the league is going crazy stealing bases. He went on first pitch so throw overs didn't matter. His caught % is the third lowest in mlb history for those with 50+ stolen bases.
Historically legitimate? So throw out Babe Ruth, Ted Willams, Ty Cobb and anyone who didn't allow the best black players. Also if course throw out anything from the steroid era. The first 40/40 player was a steroid user...hmmm now that makes Henderson his team mate suspect too.
Don't think 3 inches matters. Maybe he would have broke the record a couple games later... the record was 42/42 in case you are wondering. 50/50 just sounds nice.
@@laartwork Oh quit your yappin. Ricky would steal 200 bases in today's MLB.
Watch him get 60 60 😂
6 games against my rockies comin up, he definitely cud lol
3 games in coors field, 1 vs marlins who got nothing to play for, and 7/10 games vs losers with ERA's over 5 on their pitching staffs. It's totally doable.
All that coming from a pitcher and an injured pitcher at that.
The best day was when Ted Williams could have sat out the last doubleheader of the year and technically have hit .400. But he played anyways, hit 6 of 8, and became the last man to hit above .400 with .406. Yesterday was the second best day.
Already a hall of famer and hes no where close to done.
When they said Francisco Lindor should win 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, walked into the lion's den, shot themself in the foot, let the dogs out, stepped on Elvis's blue suede shoes, put a hit on Vito Corleone, lit the fuse, said hello to Tony Montana's little friend, drank the Kool-aid, unleashed the Kraken, 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, called Marty McFly a chicken, rocked the boat, stepped on a crack, pissed off Bruce Banner, did not stay in their lane and know their role, assassinated Archduke Ferdinand, ate the poison apple, captained the Exxon Valdez, touched a nerve, stole John Wick's car and killed his dog, 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, brought a knife to a gunfight, bombed Pearl Harbor, broke a mirror, walked under a ladder, crossed paths with a black cat, barked up the wrong tree, snatched defeat from the jaws of victory, looked a gift horse in the mouth, stirred up a hornet's nest, called the kettle black, bit the hand that feeds them, dropped a bar of soap in a men's prison shower, brought cannabis to Russia in luggage, screwed the pooch, made it completely FUBAR, let the fox in the henhouse, ran with scissors, licked a frozen pole, judged a book by its cover, 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, smoked at a gas station, kicked against the goads, ran with the bulls, stepped on a rake, painted a bullseye on their back, slipped on a banana peel, dropped the ball, stirred the pot, crossed wires, swam with the sharks, danced with the devil, 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, burned their bridges, did not play with a full deck, went up the creek without a paddle, doused fire with gasoline, cut off their nose to spite their face, pooped their pants, threw stones in a glass house, told Clint Eastwood they feel lucky, invested 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.
Brilliant!!!
Awesome pawsome!!!😀
You hit the 50 for figurative language in one sentence.😂
Shohei should just pull a reverse michael joran and go play basketball for a few seasons. what cant this guy do man
He could be a volleyball player caz he can jump high. Also he is a good swimmer,too. He is good at any sports except golf.
Im coming back to baseball ⚾️!!!
me, too.
Performances like that, on top of the record-breaking contract, will inspire the next generation of baseball players & attract top athletic talent to the sport, away from football & basketball.
Nolan Ryan never HIT like this! Not bad for a PITCHER!
1. Bonds
2. Ohtani (But quickly closing the gap)
Half a shohei is still mvp
Don't let him go back to pitching. And Angels..you let him walk and got nothing for him..nice goin..!!!
他のスポーツのスターからも、注目されてるんだね
Whoever got the ball is an instant millionaire.
Among the all time great days, but Don Larsen perfect game has to be the best as it was in the WS. This was just a regular season game
sorry guys it is the 51-51 club.
He almost got the cycle too
Shohei probably gets to 55-55 before all is said and done
Babe Ruth is a Single A player in today’s league 😊
I think the best day in the history of the sport was when Joe Carter hit a 3 run homer to win the world series back to back for the Blue Jays. And I'm not even a Blue Jays fan.
吉田に何回空振りさせんねんｗ
By far
もし大谷選手がステロイドやったら100本打ちそう
Why the fk is this stadium empty??!!!
It’s the marlins
50-50 is awesome and Ohtani brings in a lot of casual viewers but cmon MLB, you gotta market your stars better! Judge is having a better season hitting than Ohtani, and Bobby Witt jr is making history at SS at only 24. And both of them have 2 more WAR than Ohtani!
Wait, they just lollipopped floaters for him to hit.
THIS IS WHAT THIS MAN CAN DO ON A REGULAR BASIS AS AN INJURED REHABBING PITCHER IF YOU DONT WALK HIM. 😂😂😂😂😂JUST WOW
Angels fans punching air rn 😂
It felt like they were pitching underhanded to him. I don’t understand.
He was definitely being served batting practice pitches. 4:33
When they're down too much a team will usually send out a position player to pitch in order not to tire their bullpen out needlessly. Or sometimes when they've run out of available pitchers. Happens all the time, not Shoheis fault. Other hitters have had the same opportunities.
51 was unnecessary 😅
has Ohtani ever been responsible for the only runs in a game where he pitched?
Yes. 2022 against the Huston Astros (who were that years champion) he struck them out and scored runs. Essentially beating a champion by himself.
Did it again in 2023 against the Rangers who were that year champion.
Single handedly defeated two world series champions and people still deny his achievements. Crazy AF.
wow
What earbuds is Buster using?
Well since they made base stealing easy, ill be impressed later
Modern day Babe Ruth!!!
Nah. He surpassed the bambino. He’s on his own level.
He will try NFL soon😂
The thing is he is not interested in amy other things but baseball.
When he was in Japan, we japanese didn't hear he go out at night.hahaha
3:55 - he's the MLB Alien
Imagine he threw in a cycle??
If he was playing Boston he would have gotten hit by at least two pitches.
Let’s stop talking about babe Ruth as being the best player ever . He hasn’t been the best in a very long time .
It's amazing but everyone overrates stolen bases. He's got 7.8 WAR this year. That's great but not nearly close to one of the best seasons ever. Until you're being intentionally walked 120 times a year you are not in the conversation.
界王拳50倍🇯🇵😊
BUSTER OLNEY SHOULD BE FIRED
The guy is slow out of the box and can't make it to 3rd. He pitches too many innings overall and blows out his arm. He could have been on the mound and gotten the W with 10 strikeouts along with his 10 RBIs and the cycle.
It was an okay day, but it truly could have been great - the most disappointing underachiever of all time is more like it.
And yes, I am an Aaron judge fan, why do you ask?
Not the best performance in sports because it wasn’t perfect and athletes have been perfect. Not the greatest baseball game, that would be a perfect game in the WS. Best offensive game? Yes. No 7/7 game has ever been achieved so his 6/6 is tied for most hits. Only other 10 RBI game were not of this consequence and this late (12 RBIs in 1993is most since Reggie in 1969). Add the two steals, the 17 bases and 5 extra base hits and the 50/50 and it’s not really even close.
The Stolen bases are insane but I would like to know how many times he scored after stealing a base or how many times he was left on base? if he scored a lot on those stolen bases that is a lot more impressive to me
The answer to your question is based on the hitters behind Ohtani in the lineup, which negates the importance of your question.
He is 2nd in Runs in major league behind Witt 124. Ohtani has 123
Why didn't they WALK HIM Like the do to Judge, Bonds and the orhers. Giving him EASY pitches to hit
明日、大丈夫か?😅
Walker Richard Lee Matthew Lewis Jeffrey
Babe Ruth... People should quit it, mofo playing with actual plumbers n only 1 race able to compete
They're going a bit overboard here... "best day in the history of the sport". Uhhh no. Regular season come on. Barry Bonds/Hank Aaron breaking the home run record?
steroids...
No way I would put Ripken's streak ahead of Joe Dimaggio's 56 game consecutive hit streak.
Also can stupid ESPN please not show posts from current NBA players related to baseball?
Baseball should have absolute zero to do with those prima donna basketball players.
He did it against our minor league team...The Marlins. People went to the game just to watch him because we don't know any of our own players names.
Overrated stat for a DH
That second hit looks like the pitcher gave the easiest ball to hit. It looks like he wanted him to hit that ball out of the park.
Lol yeah that was 51 and his 3rd HR of the game. It was in the Marlins park in Miami and the pitcher threw 2 pitches a mile outside like he was going to walk him and his home crowd started boo'ing him like crazy. I thought the same thing and if you watch Ohtani's reaction he also thought the same thing. I don't think the guy wanted to be booed by his own fans. 🤣🤣
@@FlyEaglesFly1177he's a second baseman utility guy... It happens when you start running out of pitchers.
