Shohei Ohtani continues to do things no one has ever seen before.
For the second straight week, Ohtani hit a leadoff home run on the day he pitched, becoming the only starting pitcher in MLB history to do it in back-to-back games. He now ranks 3rd in Dodgers history for career leadoff homers in less than 2.5 years.
On the mound, he delivered another strong outing, lowering his ERA to an incredible 0.82! That’s the 4th lowest through 9 starts since earned runs became an official stat in 1913.
We also dive into:
– Ohtani’s fiery emotions on the mound (including some loud F-bombs)
– His insane two-way dominance compared to Babe Ruth
– Why we should never take for granted what Shohei is doing right now
