Nice catch, just ask Shohei

[Speedy]

If the Dodgers go on to win it all this season, there might be a person in Chicago who ends up getting a World Series share.

That’s because the batboy at the Dodgers’ 4-0 over the White Sox on Wednesday saved star Shohei Ohtani from a potential injury in the Los Angeles dugout.

At one point in the game, the Dodgers’ Kike Hernández fouled off a pitch and the ball was lined into the dugout. Members of the team took cover, but the batboy casually made a barehanded catch in front of Ohtani.

OUCH

Wow. That's one hell of a quick reaction! Nice.

Which Hernández is getting censored by the forum, Kike or Teoscar? (Ah, "Kik-e")

I'm guessing that clip is from the "All Ohtani" camera feed in Japan! I don't remember seeing that during the game (though I was only half paying attention).

"Kik-e"is a Dodger as a part of the Mookie Betts fiasco.

Is that actually the "bat boy"? Looks like he's got a mouthful of "chaw".

Hmm.. Can I do it with the accent mark?

Well he "was" a Dodger way before Mookie was.

Heh! Saw that this morning. The guy by him had his mouth wide open in disbelief!
