Shohei Ohtani makes hitting long bombs look so easy, doesn’t he?
Whether he’s doing it in the All-Star Game or every day for the Los Angeles Dodgers, he’s able to hit mammoth home runs all over the place.
This time, he hit the second-longest home run recorded in the StatCast era at Dodger Stadium, a 473-foot dinger off Boston Red Sox starter Kutter Crawford that you knew was just hit that far by the sound it made off his bat.
Here’s the home run, along with an awed reaction from his teammate, Clayton Kershaw, who was mic’d up on Sunday Night Baseball:

Clayton Kershaw has seen a LOT of games at Dodger Stadium.
And he's never seen anyone do what Shohei Ohtani did tonight 🤯 pic.twitter.com/RAqcRiWEQX
