Now can he do 55-55 club? Think it's do able.

Greatest player of all time and he's not done building that legacy.. He's just getting started.

 

[BMOK33]

Mets sweep the Nats! No more easy games, as we have a 4 game series against the Phils this weekend for our last home games then head on the road for a huge series in Atlanta followed by us closing out the regular season in Milwaukee. Hoping this weekend isn't our final home games this season!

Mets need to go 2-2 and hope Milwaukee takes 2 or 3 vs Zona. ATL will sweep MIA you'd think. Zona to me is still most likely to be eliminated due to not having that TB with NYM or ATL. The best news for Zona is San Diego is now likely not gonna care about that final series and the Mets should have the same fortune with the Brewers. ATL on the other hand looks like KC will have something to play for.

Ohtani the 2 greatest moments of his career, in the same stadium, which is not his home stadium, one at the plate, and one on the mound.

 

[TMLeafer]

I just don't have the words... This man is incredible. One of a kind.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

He just hit #51. 6 for 6 day with 10 RBIs!

[GKJ]

There is now a 51/51 club

 

[SJSharksfan39]

Can Ohtani make 60/60? He has a week and 3 days left.

If teams are just going to pitch meatballs to him, it's not an unreasonable question to ask.

 

[stephenball]

I mean, I didn’t think he’d have a chance at beating Judge in the HR race, but he’s on that door.

 

[JWK]

Ohtani has 6 games left against the Rockies, 70 home runs isn't out of reach

Haha, yeah, I was curious and checked what the Dodgers remaining schedule is. 6 games against the Rockies (3in Colorado), and 3 games at home against the Padres.

 

[ru4reals]

6 for 6, 3 homeruns, 4 runs scored, and 10 runs batted in and yeah 2 steals. 51/51 LMAO!!!

Ohtani making a strong case for GOAT.

So in the last 25 years we’ve had

Schumaker
Hamilton
Verstappen

Agassi
Sampras
Federer
Nadal
Djokovic

Jordan
LeBron

Brady
Manning
Mahomes

Woods

Phelps
Bolt

Messi
Ronaldo

Bonds
Trout
Ohtani

Gretzky
Lemieux
Crosby
McDavid

We’re living through the golden generation of sports and we don’t even know it.

 

[stephenball]

Also going to clinch the playoffs for the first time in his career. The man has to be on cloud 9.

 

[BobColesNasalCavity]

Decent day at the dish for Shohei

 

[kingsholygrail]

His best game of the year.

 

[GKJ]

All of this effusiveness, no one mentioned he had 10 RBI

 

[stephenball]

It’s funny, I almost forget sometimes that he’s also been a very good pitcher haha. If this man can come back to be even close to the pitcher he was as well, what a boon for the Dodgers. Plus in general they must just make so much merchandising and broadcasting money off him.

 

[sansabri]

i remember when Canseco went 40/40 in his mvp year. to one-up that is insane

 

[EpochLink]

Bonds was the last 40/40 guy back in 1996.
But 50/50? Insanity, 50 HR and 50 SB is unheard of.
He also has 120 RBI's and counting.

How can this man not win MVP? Unreal

He's going to win it. As good as Lindor has been it's not to the level of Judge, Witt, or Henderson where I think all 3 will get alot of votes.

If he can bounce back when he returns to the mound and keep up his offense, he has a case for the GOAT. Funny, he's not even overpaid at $70 million annually.
