    Dude strikes out the first 3 batters, takes off his glove, picks up a bat and hits a leadoff home run… He goes on to pitch 6 shutout innings with 10 strikeouts and hits an additional 2 home runs. What a freaking beast. https://www.mlb.com/news/shohei-ohtani-first-pitcher-with-leadoff-home-run

      It’s remarkable. The cynic in me thinks, imagine if we let dominating Little League pitchers remain hitters during their careers instead of mitigating risk by focusing on one or the other…. Still, heck of a performance.

        Yes. I've had the dubious pleasure of watching him dismantle the Reds several times this year. A beast indeed.

            No. We only saw the Cardinals and Cubs live this year.

              You can make a confident guess based on his body that none of his talent comes from a syringe. That's impressive in itself.

              Education is extremely important.
