"But I think you can say he has the greatest toolset of any player that we’ve seen."
In a closeout opportunity for the defending champions, Shohei Ohtani took the mound for LA and punched out 10 batters across six-plus scoreless innings of work. At the plate, Ohtani went 3-for-3 with three home runs, one of which left Dodger Stadium and traveled 469 feet according to Statcast.
Shohei Ohtani's insane Game 4 performance helped the Dodgers advance to the World Series but the NLCS MVP reminded LA that it was a team win.
The home runs give Ohtani a spark in an otherwise cold postseason at the plate so far, with the three-time MVP having a slash line of just .158/.273/.368 — and a 2-for-11 NLCS mark — before Friday’s game.
