After this game, Ohtani said,
"I think people boo opposing players because they love their team, so I respect that kind of passion as someone who loves baseball as much as I do."
that’s an absolutely amazing take on someone else’s experience.
Wow! So whether they see him as a hero or a villain, he is just happy he can be the catalyst for passionate fans. I mean, how can you dislike this man? An amazing athlete and person.
@@fogelmclovin2694 fans don't always necessarily boo a player because they hate the player or the player is a bad person or anything, they just do it to get inside the player's head and make them feel uncomfortable which increases their chances of messing up
@@user-nd6kj8yp8u same thing.
He is all class for saying that, the best thing to happen to baseball in our lifetimes. I want nothing more in life but to have a teammate like that in anything I do.
Ohtani : Booing is my power
He’s a bum
@@Dept246 How so?
@@Dept246yall hate him for no reason like haters gotta hate
Why do we let these leaves play our game anyway?
@@ClaytonBigsby01😅 loser!
It’s so hard to be mad with him because he’s just soooooo good
Unbelievably talented, totally respectful of the game and anyone he interacts with (that we can see, at least), and always seems to be having fun on the field. Even Dodger haters have to respect what a marvel this dude is.
So fn good. I mean, a phenom above all phenoms. Dominant Pitcher and dominant power hitter?
@@abrahamkim1078he was genetically engineered
Yah his batting numbers are insane
I guess if you like followers
We are witnessing a once in a lifetime player. What a treat!
He bet on baseball
Once in a lifetime like Pete rose?
He’s had a few good seasons but the strain of pitching and hitting may cause him injuries. It will be interesting to how he pitches in the future.
@@BMF_four_twenty
Troll
Should've included the part where the announcer said "boo this!" 😂
It's "boo that" lol
@@reno-san87”umm technically 🤓” shut up bozo
@@reno-san87nerd
I like how he salutes the other teams head coach before every first at bat
action is louder than any words or boos
Ohtani minding his business, paying his respect to the empire and knocking a homer, classic Shoehei 😊
Japanese guy pays respects to the empire🗿🗿
That was so gay you have to be a real baseball fan. You probably suck ass at it too
*Umpire
Daaan Daaan Daaan Dan Dadaan Dan Dadaan
That swing is wild!!!, no effort, no tension just clean af.
Classy,and talented!❤❤❤
Shohei was like my batting average is higher than your win percentage 😂
I hope Toronto fans keep booing this happy man. It seems like the boos help him hit HRs
It's like Cristiano Ronaldo or Floyd Mayweather say!!
"I LIKE WHEN I GOT TO CALM EVERYONE DOWN"
@dylancarrigan99 His team won more than the opponent team did in the series. I think he made the right decision.
I am from a small town in bc humbleness is a huge deal for lots of us folks and for the record I absolutely wouldn’t take a free flight to Toronto I’d sell the ticket!!! Lots of people over there are an embarrassment!!!!!
Gotta love Toronto fans staying salty that they were lied to about Shohei Ohtani signing, and booed him when news reporters are at fault for making a false report
Blue jay fans are the worst
You should be asking why the pitcher threw a perfect 4 seam up the middle.
Nah Torotno fans are just garbage overall...
Canadians are weird
The shitty reporting is not why they booed him. They booed him because he used the Jays (and other teams to a lesser degree) to jack up his payday in LA when he probably knew he was going to LA all along. The Dodgers actually got used too, having to pay him a least $100 million more because of it.
That’s crazy that you can boo this man . Nothing but the utmost respect he deserves
Toronto specifically boos Ohtani because in the off season his management team (allegedly) spread rumors that he intended to sign with the Blue Jays in order to make the Dodgers bump up his contract price to $700 million when it was speculated be closer to $600 million. Basically played both organizations against each other and got the Blue Jays fans' hopes up. He knows why it will be like that when he plays in Toronto.
@@kelpklepto oh ok . Makes sense.
@@kelpkleptoonly people in Toronto believed that lol
He never said he was coming to Toronto. You all assumed he was. He never gave a hint of it.
SAYONARA!!!
Even though I am a toronto fan I still love how shohei just shut up the crowd with one swing of the bat
Fans are wrong to boo Ohtani, it should be Jon Morosi....😅
Special, special player💯
Same fan booing: OMFG I CAUGHT AN OHTANI HR BALL
"boo that" 😂
This man is saving baseball 😂 answer the boos with a homerun
Why are they booing? Because he didnt sign with your team? Thats pathetic
The word pathetic is overused. No one cares.
the crowd like well damn we give credit where it's due haha, so they can feel less crunchy
Yep. I always liked to get their fans All riled up. Love the Game .
THIS is further proof that Ohtani made the right decision.
Ya ok..guy hits hr anywhere, gtfo
@@thisguy8373That’s not at all what he meant genius 😂
His legacy is going to be equated to Kevin Durant, if he wins he had to join a super team to do it.
@@terryrodgers9560 Different sport my friend LOL. In basketball you're supposed to carry because of how much impact one can have on the court. Playing field is smaller, one guy can have possession of the ball much longer. In football (soccer), baseball, you can't win alone. Even in the NFL, American Football, you can win alone since QB are the difference maker. One person cannot carry the team in football or baseball, but one person can in basketball and american football.
@clarkesmith. I agree with everything else except the american football part. A qb is a difference maker, but a qb needs a good WR to throw to. He needs a strong O-line to stop the defense from tackling him. He needs a runner to get those extra yards for a new set of downs. A QB can make a difference, but unless they have a decent team. The qb will get hurt
They should boo their prime minister.
Shuuuuuuuuut uppppppppp !
but i thought sports should be separate from politics?
😂😂😂
Omg can we just not do this for one god damn reel???
He's doing fine to me they don't pay no Health Care
How or why would anyone bother this guy, he is a gentleman in all ways as far as i can see!!!
The booing isn't because he's a bad guy or something. It's just what happens when you play an away game
@@janetnartey9844also because he went with the Dodgers instead of the Jays
Yeah but his choice @DW-op7ly
Because he’s a cheater
@@Truth3305 tell that to the NBA fans these days who think it’s okay Lebron James made super teams for the last 14 years
“You won’t hit a Homerun here”
“Wanna bet??”
As I used to say when I heard a boo and the N-Word before hitting a HR in college, "Speak softly and keep carrying a big stick" I hit .454 and was a 2nd round pick. God blessed me to keep being😮 the best me and my dream came true!
Ohtani is really hard to hate…that man is the nicest that you can get. He’s not on my team but I have so much respect for him.
This is what makes sports great, the cheering and booing. Toronto fans have a right to boo but at the end of the day you know they’re booing because they really like the guy. It’s all good
I wish they wouldn't do that though. It always makes me search for some heavy breasted woman they might be looking at.😕
Yeah, sure.
why do they have a right to boo?
@@ktakashismith Because it’s called freedom of choice.
@@paulrevere1479 Freedom to choose to act like spoiled entitled children, hooray.
Can’t not stop to comment how awesome and unbelievable and grateful to see a once in a lifetime talent.
Never even thought of a pitcher doing anything with the bat, and absolutely no where within leagues of what Shohei Ohtani does on the regular and like it’s a walk in the park.
Putting all of baseball on his back, with ease. Gah dang it, it 🤯 every time thinking about it. Thank God.
Shut up.
He’s a humble dude. He respects everyone; even if they oppose him. He’s always chatting it up w/ players on the opposite team while in the field, running the bases 🧢🤙🏼❤️
When my opponent boos me it means that I’m good.
If you are booing Ohtani something is very wrong up in Canada.
It’s cause Toronto originally seemed like they were gonna sign ohtani, but then LAD swooped in with a larger contract. That’s what they’re bitter about
There’s a lot of things very wrong up in Canada.
As a torontonian myself i can say its more like india up here than canada lately
@@colingriffin4463 Seattle has just recently become like india too 😢
Think Prime Minister. That's what is wrong with Canada.
How can you BOO a man who shows nothing but respect
Toronto booing him like he ever was gonna sign there 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Sports has some great "yeah, yall stfu" moments
Wait, Toronto actually thought he would go to Toronto? Biggest thing he was looking for, was to be on the West Coast. To stay, on the West Coast. To be close to Japan.
He’s so good natured! 😂He tips his groomer to the home plate umpire when he gets in the box! That’s hysterical! 😂 He doesn’t the boos bother him. He’s a real old school gentleman! Gotta love it.
My man channeled his ancestors and got into samurai pose🤣
I also heard some screams and cheers after he hit that hr, so thats a lot of away fans.
There’s 3 people in history you cannot boo: Larry Legend, Michael Jordan, and Shoehei Ohtani
Booing NEVER works. Just pumps up the great players
About 6 months ago, Toronto was absolutely GLAZING this man. Crazy switch up
I don’t like the dodgers but since his MLB debut, he’s lived up and surpassed all the hype surrounding his name, laddies and gentlemen…. We are witnessing the birth of a Hall of Famer in the making!!!
He looked into where he was going to park it _"Babe Ruth" again!
I think he's one of the only players in the MLB who is liked by almost every single fan base. At least for me. I don't normally like players from other teams but he's just so good and such a nice guy it's hard not to like him
Their booing their team at this point😂😂😂
Ohtani seems like such a genuine person and one of the best to do it in baseball. How can you boo him?
the think people dislike him because he just shows up, does what he's getting paid to do any then goes home without any DRAMA
Epic!!!!
Dude is unreal😮
He is the closest to a video game character in real life. He is a walking cheat code.
We should be booing the jays until they start to win or trade their primma Donna’s for descent ball players
Dude is a Machine! 😮
How can you boo ohtani no team should be booing this man he’s the goat of the league
The man is BASEBALL MAGIC . PURE GREATNESS at a rate so great it's NORMAL for him alone.
The Disrespect! 😂
Watched him since High school in Japan I knew he'd be great but he's crushing it.
I don't think I could boo Ohtani. Man's too nice and treats the game of baseball with an unseen level of respect.
Man this is just like a movie
Ohtani is the 'Babe Ruth' of THIS generation. Youngsters better enjoy it, because they may NEVER SEE ANOTHER.
Can’t imagine being mad at someone just for being the best at what they do.
Then 20 secconds later the crowd goes wild 😂
He had a bet that he'd hit an hr at 10 to 1 odds. Boos be damned. He was cashing in.
Would have love to hear Scully calling the Dodger games with Shohei on the team
They booed him because Toronto was on a short list of potential teams he may have gone to after leaving the Angels. Said then Toronto would never happen due to 50+% taxes for his income bracket.
Aw poor babies are sad he didn’t want to play in Toronto 😂
What a gorgeous swing.
love how crushing a home run turned the boos into a louder cheer.
As a Toronto fan i dont condone these actions. Honestly I figured Shohei wouldn’t have signed with us in the first place it makes a lot for sense to stay in LA
He looked right where he was gonna hit it😂
“Your boos mean nothing to him b/c you all cheer when he hits an absolute bomb”
Legend in the making
Toronto is insane to think he was ever coming to that team.
They applauded still went he smashed that ball. Guess they really just love seeing the game played well.
Always class
They weren't saying boo, they were saying "boo-urns".
I love this guy, he loves baseball, works hard and deserves all the good that comes with it.
Beautiful swing
Ohtani is a baseball samurai
Stay CLASSY Toronto...STAY CLASSY!
Stadium 🏟️ in Canada 🇨🇦, most likely reminded him of Japan 🇯🇵
Canada cry i mean canada dry😂😂
he holds the bat so upright
He’s got the Griffey swing 💯
Who doesn’t love this kid?!
That pitcher served that ball on a platter
The Toronto crowd didn't deserve to witness the homerun. Can you say pos?
satisfying AF
He just said "SUCK IT"
That pitch was butter 🚀
Anyone else notice the right fielders dance?
no one cares.
Only Shohei is in people's eyes
Nearly broke that outfielder's ankles too
He’s gonna hit 60 this year..you can “bet” on that😂
As a jays fan… you get that Shoehei😮
Shohei... One bad Samurai
Toronto fans really shouldn't boo him just because he dicided not to play here 😅 its not like we drafted him then he dipped out, or something like that
Everyone booed and then cheered once Shohei hit it out. So hard to hate him haha
