What impressed you most about this Japan team?
Their discipline and work ethic
The pitching was amazing. I love watching pitchers with good "stuff".. However, I think Shohei showed more about American baseball in his Pitching Save than the entire Japanese pitching staff portrayed about Japanese League Pitching. It took Major League heat to shutdown the best in the Major League.
@@tcdahn7 Ong well said
Discipline work hard and self-sacrifice.
They played the right way. Not just home runs and strike outs. Fundamentally they were way ahead.
In anime, these 5 throws should last about 4 episodes. Each throw has flashback of Othani and Trout, follow by teammate flashback. Then they will have monologue between the protagonists. The final throw will not be shown, it will skip forward to future where they already gone back to home, 3 months has passed. Then you will see their team holding the cup in picture frame.
そのパターンのアニメも多いですね😂的を得ています！
LOL! so true
Well depicted!!lol
hahaha sawamura is that you?! 🤣
Shigeno vs Joe Gibson Jr. 🤗
The dream scenario happened. Ohtani vs Trout and with the game on the line on a full count
It almost seems out of a movie. What an amazing tournament.
@@ninjaundermyskin
More like a Japanese anime.
@@ninjaundermyskin yep. People dreamt of this matchup when it got closer to being possible with how they both progressed in the tournament. But I doubt it was like this. Game on the line where either Ohtani seals the game or Trout either gets on base or ties it with a homer. And it went full count. 6 pitches in total with no foul balls. Just ball, swinging strike, ball, swinging strike, ball, and finally swinging strike out. And to top it all of it’s the 2 countries who are home to the top 2 leagues in the world (with South Korea behind them)
Two best players in the world teammates
Script writers did a good job to keep the sheep tuned in.
"These two players will come back to play on the same team, but one with a trophy". Nothing but respect for these two extraordinately players.
This ended well
@@Purplengold09context? Did these two players really end up on the same team? Sorry idk much about baseball
@@Pyxyty At the time yes
@@PyxytyYes....at that time. But Ohtani switched to the Dodgers.
One of the greatest moments in baseball. Two transcendent players facing off where the outcome was secondary. Also, having it be at full count made it perfect.
I'm old but I think this is just as great as Gibson HR vs Eckersely. 1A and 1B
As a basketball fan, I assume this is similar to Magic vs. Bird facing off for the championship in a Game 7?
@TomCruz54321 More like Kobe vs Pau in 2008 Olympics. Shohei and Trout are teammates. But they are Magic and Bird in terms of being the best players.
secondary result if you are American......would Japan have lost, the American media would proclaimed Trout the GOAT and OHTANI a wanna be
outcome was secondary? this was for the pride of the country who invented and dominates the sport vs the only other country with superstar talent. I'd say the outcome was primary.
I don't watch baseball, but as a sports enthusiast, I know what a moment this was! Baseball fans sure did get a treat with this final at bat! Good stuff
Did ya become interested in watching Baseball after this, or at least became a big fan of the World Baseball Classic?
Great moment for the sport. I gotta watch more of the baseball classic. Seems more interesting than the regular season.
It was the WBC... Not that big a deal
@@PRiMO585It is a very big deal for Shohei Ohtani and Mike Trout though, both players already committed in playing in the next World Baseball Classic in 2026.
@@Reignado actually, it did make me more interested in the world baseball classic. I've seen it before, and used to be a big braves fan when glavine was pitching and chipper Jones was everywhere. But this was cool to watch for sure. That's a big moment
This was the biggest Naruto Sasuke Goku Vegeta moment of all sports history.
☠️☠️☠️☠️
Goro vs gibson
Sawamura vs miyuki
F4U Corsair vs Zero.
Oops...
I agree what a moment
this, this right here made me start watching baseball again after 10yrs of not caring
Player like Ohtani are invaluable to the sport because of this!
I started watching baseball at 8 years old with the 81 WS. I'm now 51. I doubt I will see another Shohei Ohtani in my lifetime. WOW
Lebron, jordan, tiger, brady and ohtani in the same lifetime. Never agains.
@@ChanningSwagum please remove lebron thank you
@@randomax5148he should of put curry instead…
@@ChanningSwagum pls add Messi & Ronaldo as well. Thank you. Also, the most basic and possibly the oldest sport ever, running: Usain Bolt.
@@ChanningSwagum why is Lebron in the list
What a moment! I love that Ohtani took it to Trout. Two fastballs directly over the plate at 100mph and then a slider to end it??? That's the stuff of legends.
He should've throw a fastball
Yup...a slider on a full count...impressive!
87 mph, Othani is methodical.
shigeno goro
yea because even if he dont swing all that will happen is a 1 walk base. so it was really smart actually a win win
Wow that last pitch slider, perfect location, speed and movement. no one can hit that pitch. Congratulations team Japan.
even Ohtani cant hit that last ball
Was a beautiful pitch 💪
@@sa-ur9yl Which shows Ohtani the pitcher is actually the better player than Ohtani the hitter.
@@thegoldstandard55 or that I better pitch is better that the best hitter. Rules of baseball
Dang that Ohtani has guns for arms!
This was an actual battle between super stars, one that NEEDS to be played over and over again. Team Japan played nothing less than phenomenal the entire game and deserved that win
there is only one superstar in the video.
Trout has done nothing in his career to be considered a "superstar"
you got one playoff series appearance from this "superstar" and that was NINE years ago and he went 1-12
Ohtani never been in the playoffs ever so...??@@vinnyliscano4884
Watch at 3:37 Shohei tipping his cap and bowing to the U.S. dugout (and Trout) in a gesture of respect. Asian respect for the game and opponents.
Unfortunately, I only see this level of respectful gesture from the Japanese, at least in East Asia.
I wonder if Ohtani won money on the game.?
@@ohpeep3723yep. Koreans and Chinese don’t do that
@@jameslucero9547🤡
@@ohpeep3723 wht people looking to divide and conquer yet again
This is one of those historic matchups that’ll live on forever.
World Cup 2022 better tho
Nah wbc2023 is better
And no one cared outside this stadium. Epic!
@@twixenjoyer-xl7zzhe’s not wrong though. This is the best baseball has to offer and one guy doesn’t even come close to putting the ball in play. Wow how magical.
Ohtani is something special indeed. What he is doing is legendary
This mfer throws 100 mph and is one of the best hitters in the league if not the best… and people still wanna hate
Shohei is the main character. We’re all just living in his world.
We’re just extra in his anime series
Real life goro shigeno❤
and this is the boss fight
It was Goro(Honda Jr.) vs Joe Gibson Jr. Wow My childhood kicked in that moment 🥹
The fact they're both handsome makes this feel even more like an anime.
That last pitch was perfect. The balls it takes to throw a slider across the middle of the plate on a 3-2 count against one of the best hitters all-time in his prime in the final frame of the championship game, we just witnessed a legend. He hangs that slider, the ball is gone, homerun.
The inside out slider is probably my favorite pitch of all time. It should be illegal to throw it as good as he did here
Don’t know much about it but the pitch before the final pitch was going nowhere. Then he comes back with that final winner. Kept it together alright.
Whats a slider?
@@kairu6678 a pitch
@@kairu6678 a ball thrown with enough spin it moves horizontally
This will very likely go down as the best at bat in all of baseball history and it's not even close to another. 3-2, 2 outs, top of the 9th , the two best players in baseball who are both on the SAME MLB team and facing each other, representing for their own country, in the last game of the championship??? You literally couldn't plan something this incredible.
And also the only hitter as good as the guy at the plate is the guy pitching to him.
An All-Time moment right there in Baseball History
There are no words can describe this moment. This is the most impressive scene in history of baseball.
yea there is "dying sport"
You clearly don't watch baseball too often 😂
@@KaiserM3 baseball been dead for at least 15 years so yeah
@@1ZosoLZ hahahahahahahaahahahaha the fact that you are a football fanboy doesn't means that base ball is death lol. Also 15 years is not the history of the baseball. You really need to grow up
He didn’t get close to hitting a single pitch.
Baseball fans: “what an amazing at bat!”
What a dying sport.
It takes nerves of steel to throw a fastball down the middle TWICE at the best hitter of this generation to close out a championship game.
The same goes with the catcher. To call two consecutive fastballs takes a lot of nerves.
Not when it's an Ohtani fastball and as the results showed it wasn't even close.
Idk how he missed the second one. I thought that was gone
Mike Trout is clearly overrated.
It's win or walk
I will never forget thinking the day of the game
‘Wow, there’s a chance it could come down to ohtani vs. trout with the game on the line’
The fact that this came to fruition is an absolute treat, a moment that I will cherish forever as a baseball fan
3:37 Baseball needs more of this. What a beautiful touch of respect toward the other team if not Trout directly from Ohtani. It has always bothered me they do not shake hands at the end of the game like Little League, but this was close enough.
Shohei Ohtani has “something special” beyond his technical skills, power, sense, talent, mental strength and intelligence. Otherwise, he could not be the protagonist of such a ridiculous drama.
It's not drama. It's an anime
hes the chosen one
大谷は童貞😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

@@MadarakiFran You need to get out more LOL
I’ve watched this scene a dozen times and each time tears flow. Must have been an amazing moment for Japan. Must have been a frustrating moment for USA.
Disclaimer: I grew up in Japan in an international school watching both Japanese and Major League Baseball. I know how much Japanese players respect and look up to MLB players and that’s why this is like the moment of finally “getting there”. Before this game Shohei told his players: “Guys, this is it. Leave aside any admiration for the USA players. I know you guys are in awe of MLB players but not today. Let’s go get em!”
I had the same reaction. It's just beautiful how baseball, which originated in the USA, is now enjoyed by so many different people across the world. It's almost like a symbolic torch passing that the US isn't the only dominant baseballing powerhouse, and as a USA citizen myself, I wouldn't have it any other way. As the commentator said that night, "Tonight, baseball wins."
@@albert_chen sounds like you’re trying to compensate for your teeny-weeny
All the best mlb players don't play because teams don't let them bcus of fear of injury. If all them played. No country in world would have a chance ever
tears? crazy
@@user-jk9vs7tx4m
Yeah no.
Even though I'm not a baseball fan, Otani is making me watch this World Cup.
It's a shame I didn't see it live 9 months ago.
Now he has to deal with the gambling scandal investigations
As an Angels fan, I will never forget this awesome moment! What a way to end the WBC!
Win a playoff game
同じエンゼルスファンとして、最強のアメリカを率いたトラウト兄貴には心から感謝します。最高にカッコ良かった。
シーズンも一緒に応援しよう！
This is the Angels world series.
I can't imagine the excitement and frustration you must have felt watching that moment knowing your Angels team has the two greatest players on it and somehow cannot reach the playoffs. Sad to see really, maybe Art Moreno can cleanse his soul and deliver to the baseball world a moment hitherto unseen.
Enjoy it bc this is as exciting as your season will be 😂
Two legends who respect each other
They do?
imagine them on a same team...

Sports history.
As a baseball fan from TAIWAN
I would like to say congratulations to Japan
I’m 24 and I think it’s safe to say this was the most influential/legendary at bat off all time, in my life anyway
you're absolutely correct, this one will be remembered forever.
We're all lucky to have witnessed it.
I’m 36 and i agree
Because you're 24?
This is what makes baseball great.
This is it. This is the best moment in baseball in the last 100 years. We all got to see it.
This moment will be remembered years from now when both Trout and Ohtani are in the HOF.
It's certainly a great script, like a movie, but it would be too unrealistic to write a script in which this winning pitcher goes on to become the home run king in MLB and win the MVP award.
Still gives me goosebumps. Can’t wait for the next WBC
Do they play WBC every year?
@@anklepick9524 Every 4 years
It mattered. They really cared. If the players buy in, we're going to thrive
And he still acknowledged the USA team after the win with a head nod. Pure class
Because he’s MLB too
@@jaddyrose9318Or he’s just respectful. He probably would’ve done that regardless of the opponent.
@@jaddyrose9318Ohtani has always been respectful and kind, that what his Japanese roots taught him. To live upright and dignified.
A final for the ages. Couldn’t have been better
I dont think y’all even understand. That final at bat were teammates facing off, Angels pitcher vs Angels hitter
Could not have wrote a better ending to this final series. Amazing moment.
This is almost just as intense as when it happened live. This is what sports is all about. This was truly a special moment in sports.
Even though the Rangers won their first World Series I still think this was best moment in Baseball last year
Japan loves this sport man. Congrats from USA
Thank you!😊
Japan is actually one of the Asian countries that have the best Baseball Players out there besides USA.
I don't even watch baseball and I don't know it's rules but even I am impressed and cheering after that last throw. This 3 minute video is quite amazing! 😮
Teammate vs Teammate. This is what baseball needed. So awesome to see this epic moment in professional world Baseball ⚾️
That last slider, just GOOSEBUMPS
This truly is WORLD championship baseball. Ohtani and team Japan are real world champions. congratulations!

He had the pure class, on top of skill, to throw the last pitch off the plate. Amazing.

Honestly, one of my favorite baseball moments of all time.
That last pitch was unbelievable. Fair play, Japan.
Love the fact that another country like Japan loves and excels at our national past time. What an incredible ending. I wanted USA to win since im from here obviously but wow it makes me happy to see them put up such a great game
Interestingly, Japan's National Sport of Sumo has been taken over by Mongolians.
Ohtani v Trout. Messi v Mbappe.
What a year for legends and teammates facing each other on the biggest stages on Earth!
The god of baseball has prepared the great stage.
This pitcher won the home run title that year.
This is why I love sports
Its been over 5 days... But ive literally watched this over 100 times. SOOOOOO ELECTRIFYING
Wow. Two legends, two teammates, two friends… game on the line. You can’t make this up.
I hadn't watched much baseball over the last several years, but this at bat got me super excited about the sport again. Thanks Ohtani and Trout for a great showdown.
恐らく100回は見てる、結末もしってる。
しかし何回観ても昂揚する。
This literally was the day where SHOHEI OHTANI made his mark and showed the whole that he's The best player in baseball history. Sick
The re invigoration of baseball in America has a direct correlation with Ohtanis success. He's incredible and even though he (and japan) beat us this kind of excitement and attention to the Great American pass time makes me so happy
True. Now AMERICAN football needs a re invigorating bc it's not popular worldwide yet... Tho technically Rugby is kinda similar to it?
American football will never be popular worldwide, lol
@@MasterCombine I agree. Its too complicated and the refs sometimes have more yardage than the players. Its a truly beautiful sport with some of the most technical playcalling and moving parts on the field. But to go global it needs to be understandable easily like soccer or baseball. And they need to invest in getting rid of the refs/expediently overruling bad calls and no-calls

You could've never written a better script than this. This ending was absolutely incredible.
Whenever I watch this matchup, it is amazing and exciting. We're witnessing the history of baseball.
This WBC tournament and specially this game changed the sport of baseball forever
2:36 and slow it down 0.25 What a Beauty!!! Up the middle and curve at home base. Hit him with 2 fast ball making him believe, if it coming middle it gotta be a fast ball but it curves and wow! Played with his head! This dude is crazy good! Crazy how I hear about him but didn’t know he was this good! And shock he been playing for 5 years and I’m just now hearing him. The angel wasting his talent.
There could be no better way for the WBC to end...Shohei Ohtani vs Mike Trout, 2 of baseball's greatest players, who just happen to play on same MLB team... WOW 😲💯!!!! Shohei was amped up beyond belief...100mph+ on the first 5 pitches to Trout - then, he throws a slider from heaven or another galaxy... here's hoping they can contend in the AL West
It was a moment woven by the Fates themselves
great to be on the same team but wrong to be on the Angels team!.
greatest moment in baseball history
Best matchup of all time. If Trout wasn’t injured as much, he would be probably on pace to beat every single hitting categories
Congratulations Japan!
International competition is one the greatest things in any sport. I hope we can have an even better USA team next WBC. Not everything is about getting paid, it's about playing a game we all love.
That last slider has to be one of the nastiest pitches ive ever seen
That is the exact scenario/moment we play in our minds when we're playing in the yard as kids, incredible!
Goosebumps, awesome, historic, wow
this match up was truly a gift from the baseball gods!
Such a beautiful moment will never forget this game
never been a baseball fan, but cuz of this man Shohei Ohtani I might become a baseball fan. Gotta look into it
This is a legit anime plot. That catcher has balls of steel to call 2 fastballs down the middle against the best hitter of this generation. What an end! Ohtani the real life Goro Shigeno
I come back to watch this clip every so often. I remember being in awe watching live. Like there is no way the championship game of the WBC came down to these two - two of the best players in the games (if not the best) - and they just so happened to be teammates at the time with the Angels. This has to go down as one of the most iconic moments in the history of baseball.
I cant recall a moment like this in Baseball....crazy and surreal.
one of the most beautiful final in WBC history
チームメイトが９回の2アウトの場面で対峙するのってストーリーが完璧すぎる。事前にシナリオ準備してたかのようだ。
Even as an American baseball fan, I just smile when I see this guy win. I am a huge Ohtani fan.
Wish there were more countries with passion for the game like japan so this could happen more often
Wow, they hug and I didn't expect to see that excitement from them, pretty cool Japan and I can't help but to feel the pride especially being a regular American guy so thank you Japan!
100mph+ throws. Ohtani the king in world baseball this decade.
Every ball ohtani threw is so skillfu and fast
Ohtani is the best of the best players indeed. I love his talent but most love his good personality. Be healthy and happy, Mr/Mrs. Ohtani❤
