Ruth played with very little competition and in a league that barred blacks, Asians and Latinos. No comparison. Shohei is the greatest ball player in history.
@@sigerlion8608 he also didn’t have modern day training and technology we have today as well. There’s a reason why nobody looked like Shohei 100 years ago because it wasn’t possible on a human level. Shohei 100 years ago wouldn’t look like this without modern luxuries. Throw in a little context in there will you?
Homer 51 was against a 2nd baseman throwing a batting practice pitch like it was the HR derby. Steal #50 would’ve been a pick off if the old smaller bases were used. Also pitcher’s are only allowed 2 pick-off attempts. An unsuccessful 3rd results in the runner advancing. This is a huge advantage. He’s still great, kudos for him taking advantage of rule changes, but it’s important to have context too.
@@NT-or9wh your context is pretty shallow and pointless tho. Hitters dont face one pitcher the whole game now and statisically the advantage goes to the batter the more you see a pitcher. The relievers coming out now are also throwing elite velocity in the upper 90s. The league average fastball now is 94MPH and has consistently gone up for years. And sure the rule change has made stealing easier but there is still only two guys with 50 steals this year in MLB, ohtani and de la cruz. Theres also only 4 guys with 40hrs and only one has even double digit steals at 10 beside ohtani.
Been following Shohei from 2018 when he won ROY. His stamp was created then, you could see the tremendous potential. I was hooked when he slammed a HR through a hole in the Tokyo dome roof.
Hola. First timer. I'm impressed with your views of Ohtani! I'm biased being a lifer Dodger and LA fan. Credit to Skip Schumacher for letting the game play out!
Rush is and has always been awesome. The Babe will forever be a pillar of baseball history and it's Americana mirror of history. Americana. The modern MLB is truly international. Asians, Latinos and the mix of domestic international Americana. Shohei is the real thing far and away a balanced player in pitching and hitting.
Imagine Otani playing QB in the NFL. Could have been the greatest QB to ever play. You know he would be in the mix. An arm like that, speed and mobility. Unreal.
He was actually also only inches away from 4 home runs. His first double was only a few inches, maybe a foot, below the top of the right field wall. It was a Bugs Bunny line drive that just had a little too much backspin.
If there was any lead off hitter that can drive in 10 RBI's that would be OHTANI. By the way he missed the "CYCLE" by inches that would've been even crazier and the first at bat was almost his 4th HR. Unanimous MVP! He will finish with 55/57 and he will achieve the CY YOUNG next year.
NFL quarterback, holding that football in that stadium was terrifying knowing he could easily be top 5 best quarterbacks at that very moment Like when Captain America almost picked up Thors hammer and Thor is just looking at him like he can really do it if he wanted 😂
Also there was a passed ball before his hr And also, he was getting ready to hit again for his 7th time up but they got the other guy out. The guy pitching was a position player throwing floaters. He was going to get a fat hr
Babe Ruth Carrier Stats- AB-8399 Ave-342 HR-714 RBI-2213 SB-123 OPS-1.164 Babe Ruth hit 50 HR in 4 different seasons.

Fences were further away when Ruth played and the balls weren’t juiced. Sho is on his way but he has a long way to go.
He was also playing against white plumbers that throw 70mph meatballs all day. You threw up his stats like they mean anything. He was also pitching for only 1 season unlike Ohtani who did it for multiple seasons already. Oh and he also couldn't run because he was fat af.
A full team of Babe Ruth’s vs a full team of Shohei Ohtani’s Who’s coming out on top? Let’s be honest here 😂 Which Babe Ruth is hitting Shohei’s 100mph sinkers, which Babe Ruth pitcher is gonna out the Shohei’s when they steal the bases 😂 The score will be 100 to zero
@@wealth53 Yea they are. This argument is really a fallacy. If Babe Ruth played today, he would obviously benefit from his already legendary power and high and eye coordination, but he would also benefit from modern day nutrition.
@@Fisherstrong6 Ruth mostly hit against one pitcher for the entire game and statistically its not even close how much better hitters are facing the same pitcher the third go around. The relievers he faced were also not coming out throwing 100. And technology in baseball has benefit pitcher potential more than hitting with spin rates, increased velocity, and analyzing the shapes of pitches.
What an annoying take and very disrespectful to Ruth. "There are pitching 60mph meatballs" If HR are so easy then why didn't many more during deadball area also hit HR's like Ruth? Also if its so easy to hit those HR's why is Ruths career ERA before transitioning to hitting only W94 L46 ERA 2.28? If its so easy how is it possible a human in that time to have such a low ERA? You would figure if its easy to hit and everything was a "meatball" how is it possible to keep such a low ERA and still have 107 complete games as a pitcher during his 5 years of pitching? --- Something off about your logic.
In all fairness he did it against a bottom dwelling team in the form for the Marlins, its not like he did it vs the Padres or Yankees and the last HR was from a position player. Still quite an achievement but don't get carried away it's NOT the greatest day in baseball history that's pure hyperbole and this coming from a huge Ohtani fan but don't over do it.
many people here think that lebron is the goat but they never seen kareem or wilt in the 1060s-1970s, these young boys weren't even born yet, have you ever picked up a bat in the 1920s?? bats were longer and heavier it's like swinging a sledgehammer and the ball is bigger like the size of a softball and heavier, the baseball field was 500 ft compared today's field at 325 ft, even nfl, quarterbacks like otto graham played with a football that was much bigger than today's football it's shape was larger almost the shape of an oblong circle, there's a video of boomer esiason trying to throw a 1950s football and he couldn't throw it correctly, so it's not dan marino that is the goat, those players played in tough climates like the ice bowl in green bay, even now all of the members who played in -30 degrees has respiratory issues and the superbowl is played in warmer hot climates back then it the harsh climate would kill you, talk to any seniors that has seen both players played he will tell you who's the goat, you are still kids talking out of your butt!!!!!!
you start with f- babe ruth? as if people are walking around in 2024 saying "well he's no babe ruth"? who are you talking to where you think they are someone that's stumping for babe ruth and worth listening too? that person would have to be 90+ years old to have a dog in the fight and not be racist, maybe 5 of those people exist in all of the world? are they really worth basing the start of your segment around? also, yes babe ruth was better than ohtani is, but ohtani can still become better than what babe ruth was, shouldn't that be the starting point, isn't that enough? are you trying to help the enjoyment of the viewer/listener or are you just trying to say things you think will get interest? i have zero interest in, looks like im 57 seconds into the vid, zero interest in anything the rest of the way, and you helped put forth zero interest in what you have to say by the way you have said it
This is lame. Give props to the modern guys without comparing them to dead men. It's like talking to a woman and comparing yourself to another dude to boost yourself. Babe Ruth was hitting 60 homers when whole teams where hitting 20 something home runs. It's plenty things all time great players have done that many modern guys haven't. Has he hit 400? Shits lame.
separation is key. Babe Ruth has done remarkable in his era. Enjoy the present moment my guy. You dont go to the beach and call it a place where dirt meets water.
And how was pitching back then? Was he playing with mostly whites in segregated leagues? Was his competition professional athletes? You’re doing the exact same thing…lame.
Babe Ruth was the best in his era. Ohtani is the best in his era. The difference between the two is that Ohtani would be the best in Ruth's era too but not the other way around. It's just fact. It is not an insult on Babe Ruth. Both Ruth and Ohtani are iconic players and deserve a special place in history.
Does that say more about Babe or his competition? lol. It’s like a D-1 top prospect playing against little leaguers. He was ahead of his time. That and everyone else sucked ass 🤷🏻😂
@@George-f8h How do you know Ruth wouldn't hit 75 HRs today? You don't. Everyone likes to play the one-way time machine game where a modern guy who has enjoyed basically 100 years worth of advances in science, medicine, nutrition, training, technology, facilities, equipment, etc. and bring him back in time and say he would be better. How do we know what Ruth would look like if he were born in 1995 instead of 1895? It's a silly argument. No one has, nor will they ever dominate the game as Ruth did in his era. Ohtani is a unicorn who deserves the compliment of being compared to Ruth and if he plays long enough an even deeper dive into the comparison is worthy. Probably a thousand other people in history recorded faster times than Jesse Owens. Does that put them above him on the list of All-Time Track and Field athletes? Hell no. Again, if Owens were born today how much faster would he be with modern training and nutrition? No way to know. All we know is he dominated like no other on the biggest stage ever when he walked this planet. I understand the thought process of why people want to claim Ohtani as the GOAT. From what I've seen, based on raw talent he is the probably the all-around greatest talent we've seen. To some that defines the GOAT. To me it doesn't. If that was the metric, I can name 100 guys who had more all-around talent than Tom Brady but they sure as hell aren't anywhere near him in the GOAT discussion.
Great accomplishment. Big fan. But how do SB’s make you Goat!? Aside from the glow of 60/50 Judge is ahead of him in every offensive category and he plays CF which is a wash with the SB’s. I get it but this season and 50/50 doesn’t get in the HOF. He’ll get there but not if his career ended today. You don’t have to be a good hitter to steal bases. Ricky hit .267 when set the record. And stop with the Ruth comparisons and competition issues. My grandmother could steal today. Competition? Let’s see today’s hitters takeoff all the protective gear the batting gloves, the helmets and stand in there against guys throwing balls as dark as mud when it’s legal to use foreign substances and throw at your head anytime they want without any repercussions. these guys would pee themselves. they can’t even allow themselves to get taken out of base. And sorry he’s not in the conversation with Ruth. Forget the era or any other ridiculous comparisons. Both play under the rules at the time. #’s speak for themselves. Ruth 1922 .356-54-137. 1921 .378-59-171. 1927 .376-60-164. Ohtani today is at .297-52-127. It’s not even close. The SB’s and 50/50 don’t make up the disparity. And Ruth was a position player. So celebrate the 50/50 but don’t get carried away. Let’s see what he does when he’s pitching again. Jury is out until then.
"My grandmother could steal today" theres only two guys with 50+ steals this season so unless de la cruz is your grandmother, she aint stealing more than ohtani either. Noone said he is the GOAT for SB. Theres plenty of other reasons why you can argue he is the GOAT. If you want to talk about different eras, one starters usually pitch the whole game and statisically the advantage swings so far toward the hitter after 3 time around the order. Relievers back then were not coming out throwing 100 either. And nevermind technology favors pitching now with maximizing velocity, spin rate and analyzing shape of pitches. And how are you still using batting average and RBI to talk about hitting in 2024 but not talk about the level of competition when familiarity also favors the hitter.
lmao his career avg is 270 & strikes out over once a game, if there wasn't 3 rule changes last year to help stealing he'd probably only have 20 steals. His 3rd hr that game was against a position player with a 43 era in 1.2 innings throwing bp balls & against the 29th worst pitching team overall
his career average is .278 and is it 1992, using batting average to talk about hitting. He also had 26 steals the year he hit 46 homeruns and PITCHED 130 innings BEFORE the rule change. imao indeed.
Then why other players can’t set up u the same record when they face the awful team like u mentioned? Did Judge accomplish that? Did other legends accomplish that? Admitting his greatness do not bother u admiring other legends.
Ruth played with very little competition and in a league that barred blacks, Asians and Latinos. No comparison. Shohei is the greatest ball player in history.

Unreal.
or tight end with his speed
If Ohtani didn't exist, people would say you crazy if you bring up those facts. That's how crazy Ohtani is.
The only blemish in that Godly Ohtani 51/51 game is that he's inches away from a cycle 😂😂😂
That would have been too perfect haha

Shohei Ohtani is A Jedi Master. Now You Know The Rest Of The Story
It should be more than 10 RBIs if he bats 3rd or 4th
Shoehi hits a grand slam for his 40/40. Then does this to go 50/50+. Who does this?
Win a few WSs. I'd love to see him in the NHL or NBA.SERIOUSLY.
Hahahahaha I'd love to see shohei on skates

He's gonna do 60/60 b3for the season ends
太神啦😮谷神降臨啦🎉

Bro, had no idea your a sports dude? Just used to listening to you on turbo! Props to you !
Otani doesn’t disrespect the past players like y’all.
Ohtani is goat.
Shohei Ohtani will need two more home runs (55) to break Babe Ruth's record (54) to start a full season with a new team.
The invetment Ohtani has officially paid off. Surreal stats to ponder once he starts to pitch next season
大谷がマーリンズにも敬意を持ってプレーしてるの いいよね

Ruth 1922 .356-54-137. 1921 .378-59-171. 1927 .376-60-164. Ohtani today is at .297-52-127. It’s not even close. The SB’s and 50/50 don’t make up the disparity. And Ruth was a position player. So celebrate the 50/50 but don’t get carried away. Let’s see what he does when he’s pitching again. Jury is out until then.
Judge is a juicehead though.
"My grandmother could steal today"
theres only two guys with 50+ steals this season so unless de la cruz is your grandmother, she aint stealing more than ohtani either. Noone said he is the GOAT for SB. Theres plenty of other reasons why you can argue he is the GOAT. If you want to talk about different eras, one starters usually pitch the whole game and statisically the advantage swings so far toward the hitter after 3 time around the order. Relievers back then were not coming out throwing 100 either. And nevermind technology favors pitching now with maximizing velocity, spin rate and analyzing shape of pitches. And how are you still using batting average and RBI to talk about hitting in 2024 but not talk about the level of competition when familiarity also favors the hitter.
Here we go again with the crying 😂
Lost me at F Babe Ruth. No respect.
Dude...F babe Ruth. I'm sick of hearing about that dude. He played with plumbers. Stop acting like Babe is the best thing since sliced bread
@@MC-tm2uyAnd exactly who the fck are you?
Thank you!
Covino....keep Babe Ruth's name out of your mouth.
Freedom of speech keep crying.
Babe who?
@@studior3ddApparently freedom of ignorance too! 🤡
@@r7calvinBack in your hole trollboy!
lmao his career avg is 270 & strikes out over once a game, if there wasn't 3 rule changes last year to help stealing he'd probably only have 20 steals. His 3rd hr that game was against a position player with a 43 era in 1.2 innings throwing bp balls & against the 29th worst pitching team overall
And what did you do yesterday? Sit down little kid.
his career average is .278 and is it 1992, using batting average to talk about hitting. He also had 26 steals the year he hit 46 homeruns and PITCHED 130 innings BEFORE the rule change. imao indeed.
stay mad, little boy
Then why other players can’t set up u the same record when they face the awful team like u mentioned? Did Judge accomplish that? Did other legends accomplish that? Admitting his greatness do not bother u admiring other legends.
@@bobsmith2211 lmao & also 10 caught stealing which led the league
He was a foot away from four homeruns!!!!! 🤯🤯🤯
This is all anout race , yall hate ruth bc he's white, just look at the comments,
Cry more
That's all they got!
