Shohei Ohtani delivers greatest performance ever

[princekwekua]

Shohei Ohtani of the LA Dodgers pitched 6 scoreless innings against the Brewers in Game 4 of the NLCS yesterday. And clobbered 3 home runs as a DH with one of the balls leaving the ballpark.
That has to rank as the greatest individual performance in MLB history.
Incredibly amazing

As much as I love the Jays, these guys are the equivalent to what the Panthers are in the NHL.

 

[Intrinsic]

Like a lot of people have said in comments, he is not human. It's just crazy what he does on the field.

 

[Carpa]

That's crazy, they're going to win the World Series. He's amazing.

 

[glamphotographer]

I say the Dodgers are winning the WS. I just want the Jays to eliminate the Mariners for revenge on the Springer hit by pitch in the knee.

You can bet that there sre fathers teaching their toddler boys to pitch and hit right now, we will see more Ohtanis in 15 yrears time.

You can't teach that kind of talent.

You can't teach that kind of talent.

Apparently in Japan they do.

 

[Boss Nass]

Sorry, Babe Ruth, but you're now relegated. Ohtani is the GOAT.

 

[princekwekua]

Greatest game in the history of sports. The only potential equivalence would be as a quarterback throwing 300 yards & 3 touchdowns, and then playing as a CB with a couple of interceptions

 

[glamphotographer]

He's the Babe Ruth of our time.

 

[glamphotographer]

So they won't allow pitchers to bat in the lineup anymore, now DH. Maybe they should make pitchers bat in the lineup, kids playing baseball will be like Shohei.

Babe Ruth was overrated, he never played against Black, Latino and Japanese players. Ohtani plays against a bigger player pool , why he is the GOAT!

You could say the same thing about Bill Russell or Wilt Chamberlain. You can't fault any of them for the level of their competition.

It didn't make him overrated. He was great compared to his competition. Bobby Orr never played against Russian players. Gretzsky rarely played against non Canadian talent.

When Ruth barnstormed against Negro league all stars he did even better than he did in MLB.

'' In the 16 documented barnstorming games against Negro League all-stars, Babe Ruth batted .463 with 11 home runs, hitting one home run for every five at-bats. His performance included a batting average of .463 and 11 home runs in those 16 games, showcasing his skill against the era's top black players. Ruth supported the Negro Leagues financially and advocated for integration, with his participation in these exhibition games helping to promote the talent of black players ''

So there goes that argument...

To call him overrated is showing a blatant lack of knowledge of the game.

Here's what Pete Rose has to say about Ruth.

Amazing, even if the Jays win they can't win against these guys Or I don't think so.

 

[The Oracle]

Derek Jeter is right...The Jays are too good to give them extra outs...Sloppy play by the Mariners.

Blue Jays grind you down...They have done it all season long and continue it into the playoffs.

I'm smelling a World Series in T.O. folks...Vladdy is silencing all of his critics.
