Shohei Ohtani has the most ‘nasty’ and unhittable pitching of all in MLB

The Japanese Shohei Ohtani without any has been the real star of this season of MLB, finally hitting and pitching at a level that had never been seen before and was even believed to be possible: He leads all major league home runs with 39 homers., in addition to having a very good 2.93 ERA in 92 inningss pitched this season with the Los Angeles Angels, being not only the best hitter on the team, but also the ace of the rotation.

Much of his success on the mound is due to the fact that statistically speaking, he has the most ‘nasty’ and unhittable pitching in all of the Major Leagues, since according to data from Sarah Langs of MLB.com, Shohei Ohtani’s splitter is the most effective pitching. Since this season they have only been able to hit a .081 average, the lowest of any type of pitch.

The next most effective pitch is Tyler Glasnow’s curveball, hitting .083, followed by Joe Musgrove’s curveball, at .090. They are followed by sliders Carlos Rodón and Jacob DeGrom, who average .093 against batters.

Without a doubt, Shohei Ohtani has become a true phenomenon this season and many already classify him as the undisputed MVP of the American League over Vladimir Guerrero Jr., who is his main competitor in the Young Circuit,

I started as a rookie on Al Bat in early 2018 and I am going into my third season covering Major League Baseball as a web reporter. I am a fan of the San Francisco Giants, a number one defender of Barry Bonds and a critic of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Fernando Tatis Jr., Juan Soto and Ronald Acuña are the future of baseball, Mike Trout is overrated, and the Astros deserved to be taken away from the World Series for cheating. Besides baseball, I also enjoy soccer, football, basketball, and just about any other game that includes a ball or a ball. I am also an amateur musician, penniless gamer and very nerdy. Graduated in journalism from the University of Guadalajara, I graduated in 2017. Born in the shrimp capital of the world, Escuinapa, Sinaloa. I lived in Australia for a while; i survived giant spiders, tasmanian devils and fought a kangaroo and didn’t die trying.
