the incredible thing about Shohei Ohtani is that other baseball players react to the things he does on the field the same way little kids in the stands do truly one of the most magical athletes we've ever seen

The pitcher’s expression, that little cheek blow-out. Woo.
what a fucking boss
why does that matter? Is that the speed the ball leaves the field?
Speed coming off the bat. Combines with launch angle off the bat to determine distance traveled. In this case, the launch angle was relatively low, but because the launch speed was so high, it still got over the wall before coming down. And did so at warp speed, because it was just going that fast.
If my teammate were a yeti I'd probably be in disbelief too
Whatever. I do that stuff all the time on my PS5, and the announcers keep saying the same old shit.
The record was set by Oneil Cruz 3 months ago
Ohtani, Alcaraz, Biles - all show people
We gonna find out something terrible about this guy?
120 mph fast balls? I have been away from watching baseball for a while if that alone wasn’t the amazing part of that play.
Not the pitch. Speed off the bat. I think. Hit the bleachers lickety split.
Ah ok that makes more sense.
makes you feel for all the guys who have to throw sub-99 mph baseballs at him on league minimum
Telling your grand kids about the time Shohei put your best stuff into low earth orbit
I know fuck all about baseball but I do enjoy how the other professional athletes are like “… Holy Shit.”
