Shohei Ohtani amazingly knocked his own number off the Green Monster scoreboard

There really hasn’t been a player like Shohei Ohtani in generations, and Thursday’s game against the Boston Red Sox was just another reminder of that.

The two-way star pitched seven scoreless innings with 11 strikeouts, throwing 81 of 99 pitches for strikes (!!!). But Ohtani didn’t just stop with a dominant outing on the mound. He found ways to amaze us all with the bat as well.

After hitting one of the longer singles you’ll ever see in a Major League game, Ohtani wreaked more havoc on Fenway Park. Hitting with the bases loaded in the eighth inning, Ohtani lined a single off the Green Monster that somehow took out his own number.

How’s that for precision? Also, that sound. I mean, the guy is just incredible.

Ohtani ended up going 2 for 4 on the day (along with the 7 innings, 11 strikeouts on the mound). The Angels won, 8-0. and MLB fans were understandably impressed.
