LA Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani is on the verge of losing Game 4 of the World Series.
Ohtani started and played as the first hitter in Game 4 of the World Series against the Toronto Blue Jays at Dodger Stadium in LA, California on the 29th (Korea time).
Ohtani, who had a game of going up to 18th inning in Game 3 the previous day, went to bat 9 times and got on base all 9 times. It was good that the team won a dramatic victory with Freddie Freeman's winning shot in the 18th inning, but it could be a physical burden for Ohtani, who had to start the next day.
However, Ohtani laughed at this, and as soon as the game began, he sprayed 97 miles of fastball. Sweeper, the angle of the curve was good. He put pressure on the exhausted Toronto batters.
The batters also helped Ohtani. Enrique Hernandez's sacrifice fly in the second inning opened the scoring.
However, an unexpected scenario in the third inning was waiting for Ohtani. With one out and runners on first base, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. hit a come-from-behind two-run shot. Sweeper real throws flocked high in the middle, and Guerrero Jr. did not miss it.
Ohtani did not give in and pitched bravely until the sixth inning. In particular, Guerrero Jr.'s next at-bat, he sprayed 99-mile fastballs in a row. It was a battle of pride.
However, Ohtani was also a person, and he was exhausted in the seventh inning when the number of pitches increased. The ball was kept at 97 miles, but the ball began to rush into the middle. Dalton Basho and Ernie Clement had consecutive hits. Manager Dave Roberts made the decision to make Ohtani. However, reliever Anthony Banda allowed a timely hit through Andres Jimenez, and pinch hitter Ty Frans' RBI ground ball came in, and all Ohtani successors came in. Four runs.
Toronto, which gained momentum, widened the gap to five points with additional timely hits by Bobissett and Edison Barzer.
Ohtani finished his start in Game 4 of the World Series with six hits, one walk, six strikeouts and four runs in six innings.
