Shohei Ohtani manages to pull off an absolutely incredible feat almost every game, and Thursday’s matchup with the Boston Red Sox was no exception.
He hit one of the deepest singles you’ll ever see in a big-league game.
Ohtani — the starting pitcher for the game — stepped up to the plate in the fourth inning with Taylor Ward on first base, and he ripped a deep shot to straightaway center field. Now, Fenway Park has notoriously strange dimensions, and the wall jets out towards right-center field at the 420 mark. That’s normally tough enough for any outfielder, but Jackie Bradley Jr. also had to deal with the sun.
