“Just finished celebrating as of now,” Ohtani said via interpreter, Will Ireton. “Ready to switch gears and focus on the next series.”
While Ohtani had a lot of fun celebrating in the clubhouse after the game, he’s already shifting his focus to the biggest goal — a World Series championship.
Ohtani has lived up to the hype in his first ever postseason. Across the first 11 games of the playoffs, he’s has a .934 OPS. In the NLCS, he hit .364 with two home runs and six runs batted in.
