Shohei Ohtani 2021 Topps NOW #222

Down to their final out of the game, the Angels found themselves down 5-4 to the AL East leading Boston Red Sox. Shohei Ohtani stepped up to plate with a runner on first looking to change the game with one swing of the bat. The two-way phenom delivered his first go-head home run in the ninth inning or later of his young MLB career. Ohtani struck the first pitch he saw from Matt Barnes and sent it just far enough to wrap around "Pesky's Pole." Shohei now has a share for the League lead in homers with 12.
