Tigers pitcher perfectly sums up Ohtani's absurd doubleheader showing

The Angels had to be feeling very good about their decision to keep Shohei Ohtani on Thursday.

One day after reportedly deciding to take the two-way superstar off the trade market, Ohtani had a doubleheader performance for the ages in Detroit.

In Game 1 at Comerica Park, he threw the first complete game of his career with a one-hit shutout against the Tigers. Ohtani struck out eight batters and walked three en route to a 6-0 Los Angeles victory.

In the second inning of Game 2, Ohtani took Matt Manning to the opposite field for a two-run homer.

Ohtani went yard off Manning again in the fourth inning, this time crushing a solo shot to right-center field for his MLB-leading 38th homer.

I've been fortunate enough to see a lot of amazing baseball players over the years but no one compares to Ohtani. He is clearly in a league of his own!
