Mike Trout, one of the stars of Angels Angels, he did not skimp when it came to filling his partner with compliments Shohei Ohtani and the spectacular month that he is completing both with his arm and with his wood. For Trout it is a true honor to share with the Japanese and he does not feel any complex for saying it.
“It’s been an incredible month”, I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like it. It is something we will never see again. And I have front row seats watching it. It is very special what you are doing“, Trout commented in statements to the MLB portal.
This month he has achieved historical records, among which stand out getting 10 strikeouts and connecting two home runs in the same game. Many analysts already place him above figures like Babe Ruth and also highlight the difficulty of carrying out these feats in today’s baseball.
As if that were not enough, yesterday added 14 home runs in the month of June, becoming the player with the most home runs hit in a month in franchise history.
Total Ohtani has hit 29 home runs this seasonAlso as a pitcher he has 27 strikeouts in 30.1 innings. With the wood he has an average of 309. It remains to be expected what will be the future of a Shohei Ohtani who is listed to have a contract of up to $500 million dollarsalthough there are specialists who assure that it can exceed this figure.
The Angels manager highlighted the importance of having the Japanese in the team and how amazing it is to see him at every turn or every pitch. “He’s too talented, it’s even fun to watch“Phil Nevin pointed out.
