Learn about Japanese baseball player Shohei Ohtani and what makes him one of the greatest players of all time!

Shohei Ohtani, also known as ""Shotime,"" is widely known for his skills in both pitching and hitting. At the 2016 Japan Series, Ohtani led his team, the Fighters, to victory. He later signed to the Los Angeles Angels in 2017 and earned the title of American League Rookie of the Year in 2018. In 2021, Ohtani made Major League Baseball history with over ten homeruns, over twenty stolen bases, and over one hundred strikeouts. That same year, at only age twenty-seven, he was given the American League Most Valuable Player Award. Young readers will learn about the life and athletic achievements of one of baseball's most iconic players.
