The Toronto Blue Jays are on their way to the World Series. At some point in the fall classic, a private jet should actually be on its way to Canada, and Shohei
Star, three-time MVP and a World Series champion but even he can still shock the baseball world with his performance on the field. On Friday, Oct. 17, the Los Angeles Dodgers star threw six scoreless innings while striking out 10 batters and hitting three home runs en route to a 5-0 win as the Dodgers swept the Milwaukee Brewers.
Dodgers superstar defies description with historic three-homer, 10-strikeout playoff performance that has observers questioning if we'll ever see anyone like him again.
Shohei Ohtani's insane Game 4 performance helped the Dodgers advance to the World Series but the NLCS MVP reminded LA that it was a team win.

Meanwhile, on the mound, Ohtani just kept stomping on the Brewers. He finished with 10 strikeouts, three walks, two hits allowed and no runs against one of MLB's peskiest lineups. He featured a seven-pitch mix according to Baseball Savant and topped out on that 100.3 mph fastball to Chourio. Even by itself, that's a star-level performance.
