He’s been doing things unheard of since 2018 now. It truly is unbelievable
He's been doing this since high school and and the Japan league
@@SeeJayTML yes, specifically in MLB
Not since 2018. He’s been injured and terrible until 2021 where he broke off
@@usersixnine347 he was still doing things unheard of in MLB whether he was hurt or not
Pitchers are governed by the pitch count. Usually around 100. If you can get 27 outs with 100 or 110 pitched, and you're pitching well, you can get a complete game. Shohei averages about 6 innings per start, with the MLB average about 5. I think he threw 111 pitches yesterday. Complete games are fairly rare nowadays, with more concern for long term arm health than in the olden days. Complete game shutouts are even rarer. Complete game shutout one hitters even rarer still.
It's not just more concern about arm health, pitchers are getting hurt more because they're throwing harder and their bodies simply give out. We're pushing the limits of what's physically possible these days with how hard guys throw. That's also another reason pitch counts were higher in the past, you can throw more pitches if you're not exerting yourself as much with every pitch.
He’s the reason I came back to baseball a couple years ago. We will never see another Shohei in our lifetime.
same and he isnt a steroid junkie
Same man, raw talent and not a complete asshole off the field.
“SANTA MARIA” is one of the signature calls from well known broadcaster Matt Vasgersian. He’s regularly known to be very animated in his calls, especially on big plays. He currently works exclusively for the Los Angeles Angels, but has also covered the entire MLB, NFL, and even the Olympics.
Yes, this! Lots of MLB announcers and broadcasters have their own signature home run calls. One of Vasgersian’s is “SANTA MARIA”
Thanks for letting us know, appreciate it 🤝 I had no idea Matt Vasgersian is a commentator. He’s actually in a live Discord Poll at the moment for his greatest moments. I’d assumed he was a player 😅
@@DNReacts he has a lot of great moments and has a couple highlight reels on TH-cam😂😂 worth checking out for a light fun video!!!
@@DNReactsit also means Saint Mary
You guys are learning quick. If you are new to the game, it’s hard to understand how impressive it is to hit a 400 foot home run to the opposite field. It’s incredible strength
Ohtani is just amazing. Fun fact: a Phillies pitcher named Rick Wise once pitched a no hitter and hit two HR's in the same game in 1971back when pitchers hit. Nothing like the player Shohei is of course but that's a pretty damn good day as well.
Do you know around when did pitchers stop hitting in MLB or was it a gradual decline over the decades?
It hasn't been long has it? I know the AL always had the DH but couldn't be too long ago the NL added it?
@@r7calvinlike 2 years ago
@@EvanWoody-gu5ih Universal DH was put in last year
@@EvanWoody-gu5ih no not long at all just a clumsily worded way to remind the boys that they didn't have the DH when this happened.
Santa Maria means Holy Mary....and Angels have taken him off the trade block after signing another pitcher.
Pitchers like Shohei who strike out a lot of guys tend to throw a lot of pitches per inning, which means their pitch counts usually get too high for them to be able to pitch 9 innings. Typically the manager takes out a starting pitcher after 100 pitches or so, which means you have to average less than 13 pitches per inning in order to have fewer than 100 pitches thrown before the 9th inning. If you have more the manager will typically take you out.
Makes perfect sense, thank you for the info 🙏🏼
When I initially saw his stats from yesterday I was so taken aback by how incredible it was that he did all that in a doubleheader that I completely missed that he only gave up ONE hit in the shutout. We're witnessing the stuff of legends in real time everyone....enjoy!
Sounds like Ohtani is off the market and staying put as of now as LA tries to make a playoff run.
i wish it was a no-hitter man
I really hope they make it because Ohtani has to be in the postseason! It’s just not right if he isn’t. Appreciate the comment, he’s beyond incredible
jeeeeez it was a one-hitter?! Insane...
He’s the second player ever to throw a 1 hitter or less and hit 2 hrs in the same day. Rick wise threw a no hitter and hit two bombs in the same game 48 years ago
@@twite5462only difference is that Sho has hit 2 1/2 times as many homers this season as Rick hit his entire career lol
5:26 I believe the second game of the double header was less populated than the first because when most people bought tickets for the game on Thursday, they didn’t know the weather on Wednesday in Detroit would be bad, forcing it into a double header Thursday.
Day game during the week usually doesn’t have high attendance. Theres usually less, but people wanted to see ohtani
I kind of guessed that at the end of the video! Thank you for clarifying 😀
‘santa maria’ is the classic home run call for Angels announcer Matt Vasgersian
Thanks for letting us know, appreciate it 🤝
The light attendance is most likely due to the game the night before being posponed because of weather, which is why they played a double-header the next day. A lot people who were planning to go to the game the previous night likely weren't avaiable for the make-up game because it was being played in the afternoon and they have work/school/etc.
That makes sense, appreciate your comment 😀
And they said about heat wave that day
Others explained what “Santa Maria” means but I’d just like to add that the commentator is Matt Vasgersian and that’s his signature call. He used to be the voice of MLB the Show as well.
Thanks for letting us know, appreciate it 🤝 He’s in the latest Baseball poll on Discord. I’d thought the name was for a player 😳
“Santa Maria” is just a Spanish language exclamation. “Saint Mary” directly translated it’s just like saying “good lord!” or whatever in English. Crowd in Detroit was light because doubleheaders are usually make-up games from earlier in the season and both of these games were played in the middle of the afternoon on a weekday so lots of people at work lol
Shohei is so amazing there really aren’t words to describe him. It’s almost unfair to compare him to other athletes. What he’s doing should literally not be possible
Matt Vasgersian is the announcer and for as long as I've known him his signature Home Run call has been "Santa Maria!!!!"....It just means "Holy Mary"- the equivalent to "Oh My God".
Thanks for letting us know JT, appreciate it 🤝
witness the balance...the power...the swagger...of shohei ohtani
🔥🔥
he was actually taken off the trading market before these games so he will not be traded this season. Also, “santa maria!” is an expression similar to “oh my god!” Love your videos btw!
Thanks for letting us know 🤝 I hope Angels make the playoffs now because Ohtani belongs in the Post Season 🤞 Thank you, we really appreciate your support.
One of my favorite things about Ohtani is the comment sections on all his highlight videos. One of the only places I've seen with people from all over the world talking and not fighting with eachother, screaming about politics or saying the athlete is actually overrated lol
I agree
Game recognizes game.
You hit the nail right on the head! Ohtani has had some injuries in the recent past so he has been given a short leash on the pitching side of things. He typically doesn't pitch more than 6 innings. Which most pitchers really don't anymore. That said, in this game, if you noticed his pitch count in the 9th inning, he had just got to 100 pitches so he was very efficient with the amount of pitches he needed to get to the end of the game so, when you're pitching a 1 hit shutout and you haven't thrown a lot of pitches... you've earned your 9th inning.
Thanks for letting us know and providing this context James, really appreciate it 🤝
6:35 the santa maria i think was made most popular when david bowe hit that incredible walk off slam
His fastball up in the zone is unhittable. High Heat!!!
Reminds me of Clemens in Boston.
This Angels fan sat at home and watched every pitch of both games. I keep telling myself Shohei will pitch a Perfect Game, and I will be there watching.
hope the angels keep him for ever i grew up in anaheim
he pitched an effin ONE hitter!!!
Best player in the world and probabl EVER! We are lucky enough to witness a legend in the making. Truly amazing! (Rockies fan unfortunately lol)
Complete games for pitchers are very rare nowadays. Shutouts (a complete game allowing zero runs) is even more rare. It requires throwing a lot of pitches , and teams are now more aware of how taxing that can be to a pitcher in the long run.
Considering how long MLB contracts have gotten, it makes financial sense to keep their pitch counts as low as possible.
It’s worth noting that while in Japan, I think Ohtani pitched 13 complete games with 7 of them being shutouts. Crazy stuff!
On June 28th Domingo German had a perfect game in Oakland! Very rare.
Santa Maria is roughly "Holy Mary". Poor Ohtani hurt his back on one of his at bats in this second game.
Santa Maria is from the prayer "Hail Mary". At the middle of the prayer we call out to "Holy Maria, Mother of God...". When prayed in Spanish "Holy Mary" translates to "Santa Maria". Among Spanish speakers it used as OMG. Also when Columbus came to the New World his little fleet of 3 ships were the Nina, Pinta and the Santa Maria.
Ah okay, thank you for this, appreciate the info Joseph 🤝 Hope you’re doing well
@@DNReacts I always thought it was from blazing saddles when that one guy sees Mongo riding into town on the ox.
@hifijohn True, but it's a very common expression in the Latin American lexicon....like "Dios Mio" (Oh My God!)
Complete game shutouts used to be the norm for top pitchers, but they've become very rare. I think part of the reason Ohtani was allowed to finish game 1 is that it was a double header and that performance allowed the Angels to preserve their bullpen for game 2.
It's just so difficult to explain what an aberration Ohtani is. People can compare him to Babe Ruth from 100 years ago, but the level of competition in the 1920's was nowhere near what it is today. Shohei may very well be the greatest player in baseball history in terms of peak talent (we'll have to see what his longevity ends up being like). What he is doing, especially these past 3 years, is astounding. To the point that 5 years ago, no one around baseball would have thought what we are seeing is even possible.
5:35 The game was played in mid afternoon on a weekday when everyone is at work
To put everything in context, the day before the game was cancelled due to weather, later that day the GM announced he will not be traded, and after that it was announced that he will start game 1 instead of the later game...Trout will be back in a month or so but Ohtani has decided to put them on his back and try to get into the playoffs...Ohtani just loves baseball... I think he really didn't want to be traded during season...and if he got traded to the NL then he wouldn't win any MVP....and right now he's a lock for it...2 MVP's in 5 years is a good career mark
He has pitched off many shutouts before, he's pitched multiple games shutting out up to 13 batters before actually. This is simply the first time he's done that through 9 innings.
A day game in Detroit seems like the perfect recipe for light attendance lol
Santa Maria means Saint Mary in Spanish. Basically “Holy Shit” but in lighter terms
Ah thanks for that Nick, appreciate the info. Makes a lot of sense 🤝
You've got to check out some highlights of Kerry Wood from 1998. Struck out 12.6 batters per 9 innings... as a rookie.
Rick Wise of the Phillies threw a no-hitter & also hit 2 home runs in the same game (national league didn’t have the designated hitter & the pitcher hit in the line up)
Just give him the MVP now
It already happened fellas . BABE RUTH .
I’m in Michigan I go to games every year it’s not packed these days like it use to be but the main reason it looks so empty in the second game is bc it was one of the hottest days of the year yesterday and 2nd game so people were getting cooked out there
Makes sense, thank you for the context, really appreciate it 🤝
I’m sure someone has already explained but yes, in baseball complete games are rare. Mainly for the pitchers health, the general watermark for pitchers is to stay around 100 pitches, so you have to pitch a GEM to even get to the 8th inning still under 100 pitches, let alone the 9th inning still under 100 pitches. Also in baseball, the bullpen (the pitchers who come in after the starter), are a tool to be used against certain batters and situations. So once your starter gets you through most of the game, your relievers and your closer can throw a different game plan to the other team. Lastly, MLB hitters get WAYYY better against pitchers on their third time through the lineup, even good pitchers start to get hit or fall apart once they face the lineup 4 or 5 times. Suffice to say, a complete game in baseball nowadays is a real feat that defies all logistics of baseball strategy and load management. And a “shutout” is the term for a complete game where you give up no runs.
Contrary to popular belief he wasn’t cramping his back was hurting from having to carry the entire Angels organization on his back
Let me translate, "Santa Maria!" = "Oh... My... Word!"
You heard the "Santa Maria" from earlier compilation videos showcasing shohei and trout. The one video of the best bat crack on earth from shohei, I believe he says "Santa Maria"
Thanks Collin, thought I’d heard it before. Seen in the other comments he’s currently covering LA Angels, so that adds up too
A few weeks ago against my White Sox he hit 2 home runs and struck out 10. Amazing. Pitchers throwing complete games is becoming more and more rare. The game has been restructured to maximize the life of the pitchers. They're usually on very strict pitch counts and will be pulled once that is reached. Obviously no-hitters or perfect games would be less likely, as well as shutouts.
Incredible!
People don't hit home runs to that spot in Detroit. That second one was a shot.
it’s just getting ridiculous at this point. he does shit that nobody else can do, he never slumps, and he keeps getting better
It’s beyond incredible! He’s a robot I swear 😅
He is off the trade block
Thanks for letting us know Gary 🤝 Angels better make the playoffs now because Ohtani belongs in the Post Season 🤞
I love all the info and clear love Damo has for the game. Makes me truly happy.
Thank you so much 🤝 Really enjoying it, love that you’re enjoying too
He hit another home run tonight btw hahaha
Santa Maria originates from the Latin Saint Santa Maria (Saint Maria in English) Maria basically being the Spanish name for Mary
This game was a double header, typically in double headers you would want to conserve bullpen arms where you would use as little resources for game 1. Originally Shohei was scheduled to start game 1 of LAA vs Toronto but Phil Nevin(manager) opted shohei to pitch game 1 of the double header as if he will be pitching Toronto Game 1 he might not be in optimal condition to pitch as they will be doing a double header where he will DH then jump on to a plane for a series in toronto the following day.
He left after his 2nd Homer due to cramping (back) and took the rest of the day off. At his rate, he could've hit a 3rd Homer had he stayed in the game. Just an unreal day for Ohtani.
Crazy day! He earned the rest of the day off!
Thank goodness it was only cramping. He's back in the lineup today and has another homer already.
@@carlwilliams9642 He's pretty insane 😲😳
Literally! He hit a homer in his first at bat again tonight! Dude is unreal
That doubleheader was played in the middle of the day while most people were at work. That's why the crowd was so sparse. The Tigers don't usually sell out anyway because they're not a great team at the moment, but they usually have many more fans in the stands than this.
I don’t even especially watch baseball outside of physically going but Ohtani may be my favorite athlete of all time
"It's briyant"
Santa Maria is one of 1 million ways Latinos say essentially meaning in this case (though it varies from person to situation) as Oh My God, Wow!
Imagine hopefully someday in futbol we will get a player who can player winger or striker and goalkeeper that would be insane
They've said he's not getting traded; in fact, they just added players.
Thanks for letting us know 🤝 Angels better make the playoffs now because Ohtani belongs in the Post Season
I can't wait for him to be a Yankee/Met. Santa Maria is one of Columbus' ships (Nina, Pinta, Santa Maria) when he rolled out to the "New World" and considering how uncool Columbus is now, it's not always a great reference 😂
I remember watching the second home run. It's pretty common for hitters to take their timeout after they get to 2 strikes, but Shohei took his when it was went 3-1. I remember looking to my friend and saying "he's taking a timeout because he knows Manning doesn't want to walk him, and he knows this is his best chance at hitting another home run". And sure enough!
Hate to say it because Ohtani is a once in a lifetime player but this isn;t actually the first time this has happened, "Rick Wise" in his June 23, 1971 start threw a no hitter and homering twice.
Oh wow, that’s incredible! This sounded that incredible, I didn’t even think to check if anyone had achieved this before. Thanks for the info 🤝
If you have a low enough pitch count around 100 pitches they’ll usually let you complete the 9th, but injury risk goes up usually beyond that count.
That makes sense, thank you!
Have you ever watched Star Trek Seep Space 9? The commander is a big baseball fan and his favorite player was a Japanese player named Buck Buchai who was considered the best player of all time. I think he was a 2 way player as well. Really weird thing is Buchai was born in the 1990s and so was Shohei. Art proving life or is that life proving art?
Hey guys just to comment on the crowd. Its a weekday afternoon game and unscheduled double header because, of a weather cancelation. Also its Detroit and they stink.
Didn’t make the link about the afternoon game. Nick steered me right 😂 Thanks for the comment, we appreciate it
The Angels pulled him from trade offers two days ago AND shored up their pitching by trading for two competent pitchers. They're going all-in for the playoffs and showing their intent to sign him long term.
Thanks for letting us know 🤝 Angels better make the playoffs now because Ohtani belongs in the Post Season 🤞
DN Reacts as of yesterday Angels officially said Ohtani is staying though they did ad Lucas Giolito and another arm both from the Chicago White Sox for Shohei to stay and a playoff push
A guy named Rick Wise threw a no hitter and hit 2 HRs in the same game in 1971.
Wow, I hadn’t even considered anyone else had done this given how incredible it is! Thanks for the info Ryan, appreciate it 🤝
@@DNReacts But…. Rick Wise just had an incredible day, he wasn’t leading the major leagues in HR’s and didn’t have the leagues lowest batting average against which Ohtani is doing right now, it’s really hard to believe what he is doing right now even though I’m watching it.
I bet there has never been another MLB player that has hit a home run in one country and then the very next at-bat hit another home run in another country. Shohei did that when he homered in Detroit and then homered in Toronto the next day in the next at bat.
Ohtani is the best to ever play the game. Not only is he a superstar pitcher _and_ batter, I'd bet he'd be great at any position on the field. But I think one day they'll be someone as good or better. Sports science and medicine are so good these days, and only getting better. As a species we're capable of being stronger and faster than our ancestors were. Think about pitting an early era NFL team against a modern one. People continue to push the boundaries of athleticism, and we'll continue to improve as a result.
Santa Maria is Spanish for “Saint Mary”. As a Catholic society, it’s like us saying “My god.”
Thank you for letting us know, appreciate it 🤝
He is staying. The Angels are close to a playoff with the wildcard and only 7 back of the division lead behind the Rangers. They just signed a front line pitcher so they are all in these last two months. Keep up the great reactions.
On your question about pitchers going all 9 - it used to be way, way, way more common. But modern pitching figured out pretty quickly that the number one predictor of injury (other than prior injuries) is pitching longer and more often. So there was a bit of an industry shift.
Yea, the first game was at around 10am and then the second was at I think around 2pm(?) on a random Thursday, so I wouldn’t expect a big crowd. Of course, Shohei put on a show regardless 🙌🏼
Never say never. No one would have believed anyone could be a great pitcher and hitter after Babe Ruth.
Santa Maria in this context I'm pretty sure is a reference to Saint Mary, it's essentially the equivalent to saying "holy mother of God"
Santa Maria TECHNICALLY means Saint Mary (or Maria) but it's just used as an expression in baseball when your mind is blown.
Thanks for letting us know, appreciate it 🤝
he gonna stay
(and of course i mean the angels aren’t gonna trade him, i’m not commenting on where he will go in free agency)
"Santa Maria" is Spanish for "Holy Mary". "Holy Mary" and "Santa Maria" are used in a similar vain to "oh my God" or "Holy Shit". Filler/reaction you use when you see "a miracle".
Santa Maria is spanish/latin for Saint Mary
Others have said that’s Matt Vasgersian’s catch phrase, but they forget he has been the Padres broadcaster from 2002-2008
Ohtani gets intentional walk everyday. 男なら勝負しろやあああああ
It was super hot, and there were a lot of people in the 1st game of the doubleheader because he was pitching then they all left. But it normally isn't that full because the team isn't the best so people don't really show up. Unless the appossing team is good or they play the toronto blue jays because it's only a 4 hour drive from Detroit to toronto
I’m a Tigers fan and had the (not so) privilege of watching these games. This makes me wonder at what point we start considering Shohei as one of the greatest players ever.
Also about the crowd, we’ve put together some solid crowds for some games this season, but this game started at 4 pm so basically everyone was at work, a big reason as to why the stadium was empty.
I never thought I would see such a player in my lifetime. If I ever have kids, I don't know if they'll believe me when I tell them about Ohtani.
This was a Double Header. Two games, back to back. They were supposed to play a game the night before last. It was cancelled because of inclement weather. It just so happens that yesterday works to make-it-up.
Not only a shut out but I think he only allowed 1 hit. Nearly a no-hitter!
i see shohei, i click
🙏
The next day he hit another home run… sadly he was taken out after that due to back cramps. Hopefully that’s all it is and he’s good to go
Convince me this guy isn’t an alien
I need the same convincing too 😂
@@DNReacts I mean there is no shot I am the same species
Damn that stadium is empty. You wouldn't see that in St. Louis. 1
starting pitchers, if doing well in the game ofc, usually are limited to around 100 pitches per outing, except for rookies who are usually capped at around 80, if theres a lot of traffic, a lot of guys reach base, that could mean only 5 innings, when you do very good it could mean a cg sho (complete game shutout)
Throws a complete game 1 hitter hitting up to 99 mph on the radar gun, then plays in the 2nd game a few hrs later and hits 2 home runs. A pitcher is supposed to rest for 4-5 days after pitching just 5 innings never mind a complete game. This guy plays in the 2nd game and hits 2 home runs. He’s the best pitcher and hitter in the league. Crazy
Santa Maria is like Spanish for something. Idk exactly but it’s like holy cow
Thanks for letting us know, appreciate it 🤝
This is a double-header meaning both games are played in one day but one of them originally wasn't supposed to be played but was because the game the day before got cancelled due to heavy rain. So that one didn't have as much of a crowd!
Also it's official now, that the angels aren't trading him, a good decision or a bad one, I now only can keep believing in them and hope shohei can experience the post season with the angels in the probably-going-to-be final year with them.
Moreno has already said he isn't trading him. Moreno is making moves to try and get to the post season. Ohtani is an Angel until the end of the season at least.
I think there may have been players capable of coming close to what Shohei does, but he is the first one to be allowed to do both bat in every game and pitch regularly.
Except Babe Ruth did that 100 years ago for a couple seasons.
Angels front office has come out and said that Ohtani will not be traded. They've traded to acquire pieces to help the team instead. It looks like they are going to try and make a run at the playoffs
Thanks for letting us know 🤝 Angels better make the playoffs now because Ohtani belongs in the Post Season 🤞
