‘One of a kind player’: Baseball world reacts to Ohtani’s historic 50/50 homer

Shohei Ohtani will forever have his name etched in the baseball history books as the founder of the 50-home run, 50-stolen bases club.

Entering Thursday’s contest against the Florida Marlins, the Los Angeles Dodgers‘ star needed one stolen base and two home runs to become the first player in major league history to reach the milestone.

In typical all-world fashion, Ohtani reached the feat while going five-for-five at the plate with two home runs and two stolen bases. The second homer that sealed the milestone was a two-run shot that went 391 feet, putting the Dodgers up 14-3 in the seventh inning in the process.

And then for good measure, he hit a third homer in the ninth inning. Bringing his total for the day to six-for-six and 10 runs batted in. Once again, leaving the baseball world in awe of otherworldly his antics.

Here are the best reactions to Ohtani reaching the historic 50/50 mark…now already bumped up to 51/51.
