Shohei Ohtani 2023 Topps NOW #625

At the rate pitcher/designated hitter Shohei Ohtani is going, it's going to become hard coming up with new ways to describe how special he is. The Angels right-hander tossed his first career shutout in Game 1 of the Club's doubleheader against the Detroit Tigers on Thursday, allowing just one hit and punching out eight. He wasn't done, following up his outing with two home runs in Game 2. Remarkably, he became just the second pitcher since 1900 to allow one hit or fewer in a shutout and slam two homers in the same day. It seems unreal what we're witnessing from this two-way sensation.
