Shohei Ohtani delivered an epic bat flip after a monster playoff home run
You can’t blame Shohei Ohtani for being excited to play in the postseason.
After all, he didn’t do that with the Los Angeles Angels, and on Saturday, he delivered a win with a monster home run that he celebrated appropriately. The usually stoic Ohtani hit a three-run dinger and shouted out as he flipped his bat. His Dodgers beat the San Diego Padres 7-5 in Game 1 of their best-of-five NLDS matchup.
Heck yeah! We can’t wait to see more of this from Ohtani as the Dodgers continue to play in the playoffs.
Here’s that moment, along with an even better view from Umpire Cam:
