Shohei Ohtani has had a magical season with the Los Angeles Angels. It seems like every night he’s doing something that leaves MLB fans in complete awe, either on the mound or at the plate. We’re all just really lucky to be able to experience a level of greatness that we may never see again.
You know who’s really lucky, though? Young kids who get to look up to Ohtani and dream of one day playing baseball the way he does.
One player from Japan at the Little League World Series summed that up perfectly when he listed Ohtani as his favorite superhero.
This is great:
