[Special commentary]Shohei Otani’s 11th home run! 6th win with Yamamoto’s amazing pitching! Did former manager Dusty Baker predict Ohtani’s performance so far?

Dodgers vs. Angels “Freeway Series” Game 2 (June 7th, Los Angeles Japan time) Shohei Otani exploded from the first inning. He hit No. 11, a two-run home run that led to a large number of points for the team, and the Dodgers showed overwhelming strength against their former team, the Angels. ■ The Dodgers scored nine points to decide the game from the first inning, and on this day, they sent Yoshinobu Yamamoto to the starting mound. The batting lineup strongly supported Yamamoto. He produced a big inning from the first inning, quickly taking control of the game with a fierce attack that scored 9 points in one go. It was a great support shot for the starting pitcher. ■ Shohei Otani Shohei Otani was the one who started the season’s 11th home run. Otani, who participated in the starting lineup as the No. 1 designated hitter, stepped up to bat with two outs and a man on second base in the first inning. His opponent is the second left-handed suiter. He attacked with a sinker that hit the inside, but Otani caught it perfectly, not with force or skill, but with his timing, and carried it straight to the left center stand. A perfect hit with a batting speed of 110.4 mph (approximately 177.7 km) and a flight distance of 406 feet (approximately 123.7 meters). His powerful two-run home run in the opposite direction gave the team momentum. The shot, which was watched by the players of his former team, the Angels, had such an impact that even the enemy’s broadcast booths could hear cries of grief. ■ This is how the legends saw it Former Astros manager Dusty Baker said, “I’ve seen many guys who get out of hand the moment they get on the wave, but Ohtani is in a different league.Once he turns on the ball, no one can stop him.Whether he scatters the ball or slows down, when he’s riding it, Ohtani hits all of it back.From a pitcher’s perspective, he’s a nightmare.” From a data analysis point of view, Alex Rodriguez calmly analyzed the ball, saying, “It was a real home run, hitting the ball perfectly in the opposite direction with a batting speed of 110 mph.He had been getting hits in the past few games, and his form hadn’t declined at all.It was only a matter of time before he exploded.” David Ortiz couldn’t hide his excitement, saying, “I like Shohei’s shot in the opposite direction the most.The fact that he carries it in the opposite direction without forcing it shows that he has both skill and strength.It’s no wonder that the fans went crazy when he saw that shot against his old team, the Angels.” ■ 9 steps away from historic record With this one shot, he is now 9 steps away from hitting 300 home runs in his major league career. All the legends say, “Ohtani is a player who doesn’t aim for a record, but rather concentrates on the one pitch in front of him, and before he knows it, he’s standing in a historic place.” Hit, help the pitcher, and help the team win. That is Shohei Otani’s style. ■About the production policy for this video (Important) The videos on this channel are original content that focuses on audio commentary, structure, and discussion.
