There’s a problem with hitting too well.
According to the Orange County Register and other local media, the New York Mets put up a message on the scoreboard that read, “Shohei, please don’t break down anymore” when Ohtani came to bat against the Los Angeles Angels at home at Citi Field on April 28.
The reason the Mets put up this plea was because of what happened the day before.
Ohtani hit a 400-foot pitch in the first inning of the previous day’s game. It sailed just wide of the right field foul pole and hit the scoreboard.
The area of the scoreboard where Ohtani hit the ball went up in flames. Ohtani’s hit caused the scoreboard to fail.
The Mets didn’t stop there, posting a witty sign that read, “We’re sending you a bill, Shohei.
Diagnosed with a damaged medial collateral ligament in his right arm, Ohtani has been pushing to play as a designated hitter despite his injury.메이저사이트
