US EditionDeion Sanders Marvels at Shohei Ohtani's 'Unbelievable' Performance as LA Returns to World Series
Deion Sanders praises Shohei Ohtani's rare two-way performance in NLCS Game 4, noting it could inspire more players to pitch and hit at a high level.
- Tuesday, Shohei Ohtani threw six scoreless innings, struck out 10 and hit three homers in Game 4 of the NL Championship Series to send the Los Angeles Dodgers to the World Series.
- On positional norms, Sanders observed baseball often puts players in a specific role, limiting pitchers who might also hit, comparing this to how he empowered Travis Hunter to play two positions.
- Sanders, drawing on his dual-sport past, said `I've seen some wonderful things that have transpired in sports. It's hard for me to say that, but that is unbelievable` and added `He's doing something that's unfathomable`.
- Following Game 4, Ohtani's awards picture shows he captured the NLCS MVP pretty much on Game 4 and remains a frontrunner for a second straight NL MVP after a.282 average with 55 homers and 106 RBIs.
- Looking beyond the game, Ohtani's legacy could inspire future players who might both pitch and hit, supported by his two-time AL MVP status in 2021 and ’23.
