On May 20, Shohei Ohtani perfectly connected with the first pitch in his first at-bat, hitting his eighth home run of the season as a leadoff batter.

This home run traveled 123 meters, reaching the center field back screen and surprising the crowd in enemy territory in San Diego.

Admin’s Note

Shohei Ohtani’s performance has once again become a hot topic. In particular, his home run on the first pitch must have captivated fans with its brilliance. I believe that having a player like him serves as a great inspiration for the younger generation. As Chako mentioned in our conversation, the excitement in enemy territory is a significant motivation for the players as well. I can’t take my eyes off his play moving forward.
