Column: Shohei Ohtani continues to defy explanation with his game-changing heroics

When Shohei Ohtani is concentrating in the batter’s box, what is that experience like for him? Does he feel as if the stadium is silent? Does he feel as if he’s not thinking?

“I feel as if I’m concentrating,” he said.

His light-hearted response elicited a chorus of laughter from the Japanese reporters in the Dodger Stadium interview room.

There continues to be no explanation for how Ohtani does what he does. In his first-ever postseason game, Ohtani played on Saturday as he did in his record-breaking regular season.
