When Shohei Ohtani reached the 50-50 milestone last season in Miami, many thought it was one of the greatest individual performances in baseball history. What they didn’t know is that Ohtani would accomplish an even more impressive feat in a series-clinching game that sent his Los Angeles Dodgers back to the World Series, just one year after winning the Commissioner’s Trophy.

In this episode of Baseball-B-Cast RodJake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman break down what might be the most impressive game ever played in baseball, in which Ohtani pitched six scoreless innings, struck out ten, allowed no earned runs, and hit three home runs en route to the Dodgers taking the National League pennant. Then the guys talk about the Milwaukee Brewers’ unfortunate performance against a giant like the Dodgers.
Also in this episode, Jake and Jordan preview the upcoming Game 7 that will decide the American League Championship Series between the Toronto Blue Jays and the Seattle Mariners. Can the Blue Jays ride Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s bat to their first World Series since 1993 or can the M’s win their first American League title and finally reach the Fall Classic? The show concludes with a discussion of the possibility of College World Series champion manager Tony Vitello joining the San Francisco Giants next season.
