Shohei Ohtani continues to make people talk in the Major Leagues, this time, not because of his home runs, but because of his other facet, that of a pitcher. It is that with the three strikeouts that he has prescribed in today’s game against the Seattle Mariners, he reached 600 in his young career.
In this way the Japanesebecomes just the eighth pitcher to reach that figure in just 84 starts as a pitcher.
With his 3rd K today, Shohei Ohtani is up to 600 K in his career in just 84 pitching appearances.

The Japanese superstar has six seasons in the majors, but in 2019 he did not act as a pitcher, he was only used as a designated hitter, since he came from a Tommy John operation that limited him to only his role as hitter. therefore the numbers are even more impressive.
The Angels remain in the fight to advance to the next instance, largely thanks to the contribution of “Shotime” since the other figure of the team Mike Trout, remains out due to injury.
Ohtani will be a free agent at the end of the season.
