Shohei Ohtani delivered an ice-cold bat flip after hitting a game-tying homer
Shohei Ohtani continues to hit home runs at a rate unseen since … well, last year.
And he kept it going Monday night with a game-tying shot against the New York Yankees, tying up the game with one swing of the bat in an eventual 4-3 win for his Los Angeles Angels.
But we’re here to talk about the bat flip. This thing was SICK. Not only is the WHAM of the ball off his bat the best sound in all of sports right now, but this flip proves Ohtani might just be the coolest in all of sports at the moment.
Check this out, from multiple angles:
