I love Shohei's humility. You don't see a guy with this much talent be this humble.
Japanese culture
So true
So true! He is really a humble man!🎉
Sportsmanship MVP!💙
Shohei thinking about how he fell short of the triple crown. And has his eyes set on Cy Young and MVP one day.
I like that Shohei and Mamiko fist bumped
Relationship goals for sure
So cute! They know if they kissed or were overly affectionate it would be ALL over every magazine/newspaper in Japan. I love how they keep it comfortable with how much they want to show about their relationship in public.
I'm confused by what you mean here. 😅
("Bumped" - Slang. to kill, especially to murder: They bumped him off because he knew too much. Informal. to meet by chance: I bumped into an old friend yesterday.)
@@rsuriyop Fist bumped in English just means you touch another person's fist with your own.
In Japanese and Korean culture.
Public display of affection is considered distasteful.
Humility and modesty is valued.
SHohei never forget that baseball is a team game. Taking MVP on behalf of Dodgers-----great.
Beautiful bride, beautiful dog, what more can a man ask for? Congratulations Sho-time!
Greatest MVP of all time.
As a DH?
Hatin’ much?
@@kazuoishi9339 Well, I guess the point is he didn't pitch this year, and so from that standpoint there have been other MVPs with better contributions overall.
But as a DH it's likely the best season ever.
He was probably already the greatest MVP when he won it either last year or the first time around, considering that he pitched in those seasons as well.
As a fan of Designated Hitters, I'd like to give a shout out to Edgar Martinez.
@@robertsmith2088 But nobody EVER had 50-50 season though. With ONLY 4 caught stealing (59 successful)
People often forget that there were loads of MVPs in the past who had subpar defense.. Also have to mention that he's the very first one to put up 411 Total Bases in the
"post-ped-era". I mean, it hasn't been done since the league was infested by steroids. Just my two cents.
@@Chabolinguez Precisely, many assume positional players are all Gold Glove fielders. Many are lousy at fielding and in fact some have negative WAR fielding which is worse than no fielding at all.
Thanks for bringing me back to baseball!
I watched baseball for over 20 years and came back to watching KBO last year after nearly a decade away because of a baseball entertainment program in S.Korea but Otani brought me back to watching MLB again. Watched the curse of bambino get broken in real time as a red sox fan but now I will root for Otani and the dodgers.
Welcome back guys👏
Decoy must have been disappointed that he was not announced to win MVP(most valuabel pet) of the year
Living legend, greatest baseball player of all time, his third MVP award but more to come!
I feel like the mlb should have a single mvp award; like if all the good players are in one conference then it’s kind of a layup in the other
@@Deerjason Just like this season there can be dominant performance from both leagues so it would be a major let down for the other fans if there was only one award esp when there is a player like Ohtani around
@@Iolo3 I know but I find it strange how basically mvps are given away twice as much compared to other American sports. It degrades the value of a mvp.
@@Deerjason yeah, fair point that
@Deerjason they play 162 games in maybe 180 days..27 players on a roster. Nba only 5 playing, play 82 games. NFL 11 players, only play 17 games..Baseball is just different...
40/40 50/50 World Series champs
This guy did it all in one season - oh and mvp
lol this is what ive been commenting also, to get to 40/40 is an accomplishment in of itself but then to get 50/50 also where no one has done it before is insane. Then to end it off with dodgers and ohtani winning world series, just amazing
As a DH.
@@SteveDave211 His WAR was higher than that of players who play defense, so it was inevitable. Lindor didn’t stand a chance😢
No he didn’t do it all, for one thing he didn’t pitch. But he’s such a great player that he didn’t even have to pitch or play a position on the field to win the MVP.
@@lukekellerman3830 If he did pitch or hit he would never be close to 50/50 and yet I think others players should DH more as Acuna in 2023 would have easily been 50/50 if he DH as theirs no way Ohtani comes close to 50/50 if he had to play the field or pitched where his body blew out and thanxs to Aaron Judge that same year broke his toe which is how Ohtani won the MVP in 2023.
The problems that should be seen is its a unfair advantage and other prime players should DH more and easily beat 50/50 as fans are in awe of it yet healthy players like Ohtani play the field. If it wasnt for Stanton Aaron Judge would have DH and hit better or this year if not for Soto would have played gold glove RF.
I can't imagine the pressure on Shohei to produce results, but without a doubt if there is one person that can do it, it's Shohei.
I think the fans feel the pressure more, but for players they're completely locked in, and many thrive on the pressure as they love to show everyone what they're capable of.
he lived with this pressure ever since he was very young, for him, it's just another Thursday

I miss you on the Angels...But I love the person you seem to be...When I see after you walk...You give your bat to the bat boy..Your so humble...That's what I like the best about you.....For a guy that is as good as you are..Your so humble....Your parents did a fantastic job raising you... bless bless 🙏
It wasn't necessarily parents! This is not how Japan operates! It's the responsibility of the entire society and specifically the region of Tohoku, Japan that creates the most humble people in the entire world!
I hear you, Patrick, I'm a Paingels fan, too, and I miss him so much. But he did make the best decision for himself, he wouldn't have gotten to great heights on our team because of our owner. I'm still heartbroken about it but I'm so happy for Sho. :)
Shohei Ohtani was also awarded the the Hank Aaron and Edgar Martinez award, Silver Slugger, All MLB first team, and now a 3 time MVP and won a World Series Championship.
All that in one sentence is truly unreal. And to think that this same guy is in contention for the Cy Young Award..,
Also Babe Ruth only won the MVP award once, because a player was not allowed to win the award multiple times.
He won the MVP award the first year it was introduced after being discontinued from 1915 to 1922, as Mr. Chalmers found that awarding the MVP award which was known as the "Chalmers award" at the time wasn't helping his automobile company sell more cars.
Great job though by Ohtani-san! I love his incredibly skillset and his respect for the game!
Also only 2nd player to be MVP for both NL and AL
@@user-gg1wb1rb4q Also Babe Ruth only won the MVP award once, because a player was not allowed to win the award multiple times, and the award did not exist between 1914-1922 and the award was only given to one player for the entire league which include both the NL and AL.
Great job though by Ohtani-san! I love his incredibly skillset and his respect for the game!
It's not just 3 MVPs but 3 UNAMINOUS MVPS which is really remarkable in and of itself. Certainly never been done before.
So humble!!! GOATAHNI!!!!
Congratulations Shohei Ohtani, FIRST DH only to win M V P ! ! !
That is impressive
Naturally because he's also the first full DH ever to lead the league in WAR, no DH has ever done that due to a 20% penalty for not fielding. Imagine, after a 20% penalty, his WAR still bested Lindor and Marte, definitely MVP!
Shohei🔥🔥🔥
Shohei makes MLB fun again for all of us!!!
1st DH to ever win an MVP
1st to win 2 MVPs unanimously
1st to win 3 MVPs unanimously
1st to win MVPs in both leagues unanimously
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Dh are normally for oft injured players, old or out of shape players. Never for somebody who should be in the OF yet he changed the DH.
It was a dream year for the Dodgers and their fans.
MVP: record breaker, 50/50, converted an entire country to Dodgers fan, brought more eyeballs to the sport. BASEBALL IS BACK
Decoy got upset that he wasn't the MVP. Most Valuable Pupper.
Anyway, do love that it's announced from one MVP to another MVP. I think it's funny how a lot of us might've forgotten that the 2024 Dodgers actually had 4 MVPs on the roster.
Mookie, Freddie, Shohei and Dave Roberts?
@@petrushka2 Kershaw 2014 NL MVP
You're funny though 😅
I love u Shohei❤❤🐐🐐🐐🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵
Congrats, Shohei! Love his winning / team mentality. He knows that winning titles is above all else, and that helping his team win and performing at a high level will bring individual success as a result. Hope he can win his Cy Young on the road to another championship season 💪🏼
Best baseball player I've ever seen. So thankful he happened in my lifetime.
I loved the hugs going round the room and then dapping up the wife. 😂
🎉🎉congratulations SHOHEI OHTANI
The MVP should be named the Ohtani Award, there's no player more valuable, one of the best hitters base runners and pitchers (that's mythical and Goat status)
Dekopin! this is your moment too, the MVP dog
They’re such a cute couple. She’s what the Americans would say, “the girl next door “ type. She like Shohei is humble. Congratulations Shohei ❤
It's because humility is a staple of Japanese culture.
It's the yanks that have some strange problem with not being humble for some reason.
She really is exactly who I pictured him to be with. Athletic, smart, bright, supportive!
She was scrutinized by all the media in Japan and they found that despite being Mrs Ohtani, she was carrying $80 Zara bag and wearing sponsored New Balance. And she seemed to dislike luxury or anything branded. An absolute role model together with Mr Ohtani.
@@mikayocc
She’s a pro basketball player after all.
@@Zagirus A very good one!
Congratulations Shohei!!
Humble as can be man . My 🐐
3rd unanimous MVP is absolutely insane. No one has more than 1
As a baseball historian I have to say there are other players that should have won multiple MVPs but never did because the rules prohibited players from winning the award more than once until 1931.
For example, Babe Ruth only ever won one MVP award as his career ended before 1931.
Also the MVP award was only ever given to one player in the entire MLB, until 1931 when it was given to the best NL and AL player.
Prior to this the MVP award only started from 1911 and discontinued from 1915, as it was known as the "chalmers award" then after the chalmers automobile company, but was discontinued after the owner found it was not improving the sales of his cars.
Therefore between 1915-1922 no MVPs were issued. This largely coincided with Babe Ruth's time in the league.
Had Babe Ruth enjoyed the criteria of awarding MVPs to the best player in the league multiple times, and had he enjoyed non-biased voting as well, it's likely that Babe Ruth would have won at a minimum 5 or more MVP awards unanimously.
Also Ty Cobb before Babe Ruth was considered the greatest player ever in baseball, and would definitely have won the MVP award multiple times.
Regarding other players who definitely should have won unanimous MVPs after Babe Ruth, but didn't due to horribly biased voters at the time, Ted Williams is the name of once in a life time player that sticks out like a sore thumb.
Ted Williams for example disgracefully lost the MVP to Joe DiMaggio, despite having the last season in major league baseball hitting over .400 with a .406 Batting Average while hitting 37 home runs that season, compared to DiMaggio who won the MVP that season in 1941 hitting .357 and had 30 home runs.
Even more disgracefully Teddy ballgame lost the MVP won year to Jee Gordon.
Here are their stats side by side:
Ted Williams: 150 G, .356/.499/.648, 1.147 OPS, 216 OPS+, 186 H, 36 HR, 137 RBI, 3 SB, 10.5 bWAR
Joe Gordon: 147 G, .322/.409/.491, .900 OPS, 155 OPS+, 173 H, 18 HR, 103 RBI, 12 SB, 7.7 bWAR
Ohtani winning the MVP award multiple times is a tremendous feat, but let's not forget the context of how he became the first to do this, as a tribute to the many legends of the past who were either slighted or didn't have the opportunity to win the award due to its non-existence or win it multiple times due to the presiding rules.
the fist bump with his wife lol
Lol, no doubt. But she’s an athlete so it makes her comfortable as well. They’re best friends.
I rewinded to that a few times. They're not just a husband and a wife, they're both each other's best friend's too. That fist bump made me think that Mamiko helps Shohei in/out to be the best baseball player ever too. Awesome to see.
@@teodorovaldez2991 So true. I think that's why it was important that he chose someone who was an athlete and understands the highs and lows of being in sports.
0:37 Shohei and Mamiko fist bump
Cy Young award and repeat world series for Shohei's 2nd season wld be fantastic
His wife is sooooo stunning!!!!! I love him so much. He is my favorite player. I used to watch him when he played for the Angels
But man it feels good to watch him 5 times this year at the dodgers stadium. That’s his home and I love my city 💙
Only he and Frank Robinson have won the MVP in both leagues. I think one award should be named after each of them when Ohtani retires. Though Frank should have had his name on them years ago. The next unanimous decision for a legendary Japanese player will be Ichiro going into the hall of fame.
Just remember that until 1931 the award was only given to one player in the entire league, and no player was allowed to win the award more than once.
If you look up the history of MLB prior to 1931, you have a lsit of some of the most incredible giants of the game known to ever step up to plate.
Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, Rogers Hornsby, Tris Speaker are names you should start with.
Also notably, Free agency in Major League Baseball (MLB) began in 1976, after the landmark Flood v. Kuhn Supreme Court case in 1972 which effectively destroyed the "reserve clause" in baseball.
With the end of the reserve clause, players were given a broader range of options as free agents and we saw more heavy movement of baseball players between each league.
His wife is just as likeable as Shohei. Such a pleasure to see this loving couple and Decoy
Yes, she's so classy, pleasant, confident, humble and dignified. Mr.Ohtani is so lucky he could find and marry her. She's gorgeous. What match made in heaven!
Congratulations Shohei!!
FYI This translator is really good!!
Yes! He should be Shohei's full-time translator!
He was Shohei's translator when he first came to the Paingels (before YOU KNOW WHO). Matt Hidaka!
Awww, hello, you beautiful couple😊
3 time unanimous is insane....and 3 in 4 years (so close to 4 in a row)...only thing left is cy young ang gg
Omedetougazaimasu
Ohtani san.
Thank you for everything you do🙇
Fists bumps his wife but hugs his agents family. 😆 MVP!!!
Thank you for the happy movie ❤
year after year s.ohtani keeps defying my expectations, and now he's got n.l. mvp and world series ring -my hat comes off
I haven't seen anything like this since steroids Bonds or Ted Williams, and before that Babe Ruth.
Great interpreter!!
Another great feat by the legendary Shohei Ohtani. Winning an MVP on both leagues.
Last player to do that, was the great Frank Robinson. Next up, a cy young award?
A triple crown on hitting? 60/60 club? The sky's' the limit with that man.
I mean how can you not vote for him, first year, 50/50 club, and world series champ, all in his FIRST year as a Dodger 👀 so yes, 💯 MVP and its not even close
實至名歸🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
The MLB should and will establish the "Shohei Ohtani Award" sooner or later. However, the challenge lies in the numerous high criteria and top records that fans want to include for qualifying candidates. As a result, the only eligible candidate may end up being Shohei Ohtani himself, potentially for a long time-until Shohei and Mamiko’s son eventually appears on the field.
投手のリハビリ期間中にMVP獲る男
ワールドシリーズ制覇
史上初のDHでのMVP
史上初の5050
本当にドジャースに移籍して良かったな。
おめでとう🎉 ❤心から嬉しい😊 肩の状態が心配ですが、どうか来年ピッチャーとしても活躍して欲しいです。真美子さん本当にお綺麗です😍
A few days ago I watched a video that ABC7 posted with Dr. Robert Klapper from Cedars Sinai explaining the surgery that Shohei had. He brought tools from the operating room to show how it is done. He's not Shohei's surgeon but he has done thousands of those surgeries - seems they are very common. It's a simple operation and takes about 45 mins. and after seeing it, I was less worried for Shohei. Haha.
You heard it from him, he’s rehabbing and is training for next season. He’s One of One.
Decoy said: "ok what a shock, gotta go pee, excuse me"
0:18 「聞いてなかった（oops I wasn’t listening)😆」lol
He is the second player to win the award in both leagues since Frank Robinson of the 1961 Sin City Reds and 1966 Baltimore Orioles, and the first in history to win it two years in a row across leagues.
No complaints!Congratulations on winning the 'full vote' award, Shohei!🐶🎊🦸🏻♀️
His first AL and first NL MVPs are unanimous. Forgot if his 2nd AL was unanimous as well?
@@Skye-tb7oq Yes. He was unanimous in 2023.
おめでとうございます💐💐💐 そして、ご夫婦のグータッチ✊ こういう所がサイコーーーー爽やかです！
Holy cow 7 years in #Anaheim and nada
He moves to the Dodgers and becomes a 50/50 plus a WS championship all,in one year
Shohei representing the dodgers perfectly 😭💙
Ohtani’s talent soars like an eagle, with the vast breadth of its wings casting wide shadows over the land, yet his spirit remains grounded, nestled in the soft earth of deference and graciousness.
Shohei “One of One” Ohtani
I would be happier if his wife got the question...
Nah, they don't usually ask the wife/partner any questions.
LOL shohei goes after the announce "oops I wasn't listening at all lol" in japanese, then decoy escapes xD perfect entertainment
6 years ago I discovered baseball because of this GOAT
Ahh yeah? I discovered baseball back in 1922 because of Mr. Baseball, Connie Mack.
Congratulations on winning the MVP award for the second year in a row. It's an award that everyone can agree on.
*Ohtani's most impressive Records with the Dodgers:*
- Set the franchise record for most home runs in a single season with 54 home runs
- Achieved a 9.2 Offensive bWAR, the highest in Dodgers' history, surpassing Mike Piazza’s 9.0 mark in 1997
- Holds the franchise record for most RBIs in a single game with 10 RBIs (in the game he went 6-for-6 with 3 home runs, 5 XBH and 2 stolen bases)
- Most XBH by a LA Dodger (99)
- Recorded 10 straight games with an RBI
- 411 total bases, setting a LA Dodgers record, surpassing Adrián Beltré’s 376 total bases in 2004
- Hit the most home runs in a single season at Dodgers' home games with 28 home runs
- Achieved a 190 OPS+, the highest in a qualified season in Dodgers history, surpassing Mike Piazza’s 185 OPS+ in 1997
- Set a Dodgers record with 134 runs scored, leading the majors in this category
- Posted a .646 slugging percentage, leading the NL and setting a new Dodgers record, surpassing Gary Sheffield’s .643 mark in 2000
- Led the Dodgers in all offensive categories in a single season
Well deserved unanimous MVP!!!
As a DH though. Imagine if Mike got to sit all day.
@@SteveDave211
Ohtani being a DH and still having 9.2 bWAR is what makes it more impressive, genius
@Zagirus If you let Acuna or Lindor sit all day they would pass him up on WAR.
@@SteveDave211
If you weren't a casual who just started watching baseball, you would have known that Ohtani had a better single season than David Ortiz, the greatest DH in MLB history.
Ortiz's best season, when he came 2nd in the 2005 AL MVP voting, had:
- 1.001 OPS
- 5.3 WAR
- .300 AVG
- 47 HR
- 148 RBI
- 88 XBH
- .604 SLG
- 363 Total Bases
In comparison to Ohtani's season:
- 1.036 OPS
- 9.2 WAR
- .310 AVG
- 54 HR
- 130 RBI (while batting 1st, unlike Ortiz)
- 99 XBH
- .646 SLG
- 411 Total Bases
So sit down and appreciate greatness.
@@SteveDave211there we go with what if or what could have happened. The fact is it didn’t. Even with the penalty for not playing defense is what makes this more impressive.
Decoy wants the Most Valueable Pitcher award
Decoy ran away because the award wasn't his. Congrats, Shohei!
Parabéns GOAT!!
Falando direto do BRASIL🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Decoy believed he was the MVP, but was shocked.
Thumbnail Ohtani’s expression LOL
Its crazy shoehi is now the 2nd player to win an mvp in both leagues and its year 1!! He's gonna be the first player ever to win 2 in both leagues soon
Soooo many records he has!
🎉🎉GOATANI 🦄🤴💙🥳
Wanna see 真美子 get interviewed too!🤩
Saying 50/50 seems to be a downplay his stats when he got 54/59...
But they used the same thing for people like A-Rod in the 40/40 club when he mashed 42HR and stole 46 bags. And it's used even for Acuna who mashed 41 HR and stole 73 Bags.
If anything, Acuña should field more slighted for being the only one a part of the 40/70 club.
What are we going to do now, say that Ohtani was part of the 54/59 club?
Congratulations
発表した瞬間にデコイはソファーから降りた、デコイ「MVPは俺じゃねーのかよ」
I love how it's his MVP announcement and he was more worried about Decoy and in the end he says to his wife that he didn't hear the results, and he was just shaking peoples hands without knowing if he'd won or not. LOL..
Decoy was like, I think I have an MVP trophy coming out of my butt.
親子でのMVP受賞も初🙇🐶おめでとう🎊ございます🎉！
The only MVP while rehabbing Tommy John
DODGERS 💙💙💙💙
It's fascinating how Lindor fangirls mindlessly championed Lindor for the MVP, despite Ohtani having a higher WAR-9.2 fWAR to Lindor’s 7.8. Apparently, the magic of Lindor's glove is supposed to make up the difference. By that logic, Bobby should’ve been the AL MVP over Judge, given Judge’s -6 OAA compared to Bobby's stellar 18 OAA.
But wait, there's more! Unlike Lindor, Bobby actually snagged the batting title, a Gold Glove, a Silver Slugger, and spots on both the All-MLB First Team and the All-Star team. Yet, somehow, those achievements don't seem to compel them when it comes to embracing Bobby with the same fervor they reserve for Lindor.
The mental gymnastics they demonstrate could qualify as an Olympic sport, showcasing a remarkable ability to twist and turn logic with unmatched agility.
They can't stand Shohei's ... complexion .... and because ... they have a problem with him not speaking English to their liking. 🤣
満票でMVPだが、これでもまだ我々は彼の才能の半分しか見ていない。

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Dude, to think that next season he can possibly top what he did this season is fvcking insane!
No offense to Will Ireton but I’ve been a bit itchy about his interpretation where he often misses what Ohtani says, sometime even critical things (like for example, he missed interpreting Ohtani saying this was so far the best moment since I became a Dodger, when he achieved 40-40) this interpreter seems like he knows what he’s doing. Dodgers should hire a professional interpreter next season. Ireton was great to come in as a emergency sub for Ippei but I’m sure English speaking fans don’t wanna miss what Ohtani has to say.
Was there any doubt!?!? 420 all day everyday.
decoy won the MVD award in 2024 season...after that first pitch shut-out inning on the mound @ dodger stadium...decoy is most-valuable-dog
He’ll have at least two more of these when it’s all said and done.
I remember Babe Ruth only got won because they had to give it to a new winner every time someone won it.
This changed in 1931, two years after Ruth retired. And before they only gave the award out to one player in the entire league. Also during 1915-1922 there was no MVP award, as between 1911-1914 the award was given out by "Chalmers automobile" mostly so Chalmers could sell more of his cars.
Baseball has great history behind it.
Will the Thrill is awesome, but get this guy to do the media translations next year 🙌🏻
his wife is already used to shohei being accoladed lolol
