Padres outfielder Juan Soto is among the most accomplished players in the game. At 24 years old, he already has a batting title, three All-Star nods, three Silver Sluggers, a Home Run Derby crown and a World Series championship. So, it should come as no surprise that a day before his matchup against Shohei Ohtani (the pitcher), the ever-confident Soto is not afraid.
Specifically, he’s not afraid to do his patented batter’s box shuffle against the two-way sensation.
On Monday, Soto was asked what he thought of Ohtani’s stellar June performance. With Ohtani scheduled to pitch against San Diego on Tuesday, Soto made sure not to laud his eventual opponent too much.
