Did Ohtani get hurt? Guy hit the 450ft home run and threw a 101 mph fastball in the same game, unbelievable.
“Ohtani clocks 101 mph fastball, launches 451-foot HR in historic inningShohei Ohtani hits 101 mph on the mound in the top of the first inning, then crushes a home run in the bottom.”
He got taken out covering home on a wild pitch. Not intentional but dude slid right into his ankle as he was landing and he was rolling around awhile. Hope he’s ok.

They said he is. Would have been an absolute disaster.
That’s good. Dude is appointment viewing. Pitching is crazy enough, his swing is what really gets me though. It’s like the Ichiro style where’s he’s moving towards first as he’s swinging but with massive pop. Ridiculous how he can get around so fast and generate so much power when his lower half doesn’t even really look stable.
The Ohtani thing looks cursed. He's gonna be a 20 HR, 60 RBI, .275 hitter or so ... and struggle on the mound and to stay healthy. Too bad for the Japanese Babe Ruth. If he stayed in Japan he'd be bigger than Hirohito.
