According to MLB’s official website, this was the first time this season that Ohtani mixed in a two-seam pitch. Eno Sarris of The Athletic reported, “It’s definitely a new pitch. Shohei Otani threw a two-seam,” he responded on his Twitter page.

 

Rob Friedman, a pitching analyst known as “The Pitching Ninja,” posted an image of the moment of release, and Michael Clare of MLB’s “My God, he’s getting even better. He’s getting better and better,” he tweeted. He marveled, “How can a mediocre player win when Ohtani keeps doing new and better things?”
