Ohtani’s Career
Ohtani continues to build on a legendary career.
The four-time MVP had spent his first six years playing for the Los Angeles Angels.
However, he did not make the MLB playoffs in that span.
Since joining the Dodgers, he has only won the World Series.
The five-time All-Star hit 109 home runs in his first two seasons with the Dodgers.
In addition to his incredible hitting, Ohtani is also among the best pitchers in the MLB.
He is 1-0 with a 0.00 ERA in two games this season.
