Junior might have been the best player in history before Shohei reached our shores. He was a natural at everything he did. That smooth lefty swing, the balletic strides in the outfield, the 1000-watt smile. The Kid. An apt moniker. Peace

Hey Ben, looks like you might have recorded your "Emergency Broadcast" prematurely. After the 1-hit shutout in game 1 of the doubleheader, Shohei proceeded to hit 2 home runs in game 2 before he was pulled because of cramping, if not he might have hit even more home runs.😆😁😄

I got into baseball because of Shohei when he came over in 2018. All I remember is that I wanted to see if he would live up to the hype. There were a lot of doubters; I still remember the article that said he was a high school hitter. But here we are in 2023 and Ohtani has met and arguably exceeded those lofty expectations. I’m just in complete awe of this man.

The sad part of Shohei is that he's put together the greatest season in history (take your pick of 2021, 2022, 2023), greatest 2 year stretch in history, and greatest 3 season stretch in history, and yet he's an unknown outside the baseball world. Every person who doesn't follow baseball knows Babe Ruth, but they don't know Shohei. Casual fans who only follow their team barely acknowledge that they are witnessing a better version of Ruth right now. Hard core fans and stat geeks cannot be anything but blown away by it. It's the great tragedy of Shohei... every game he's on the mound should be sold out.
