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.

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.

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.

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!”

@@GabiN64 LOL, he can't play Center and doubt anyone would call him a SF or PF.
That 3-2 slider…stuff of legends man
Wish there were more countries with passion for the game like japan so this could happen more often
Congratulations Japan!
This WBC tournament and specially this game changed the sport of baseball forever
This is why I love sports
That is the exact scenario/moment we play in our minds when we're playing in the yard as kids, incredible!
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
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.
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.
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

great to be on the same team but wrong to be on the Angels team!.
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!
Whenever I watch this matchup, it is amazing and exciting. We're witnessing the history of baseball.
I cant recall a moment like this in Baseball....crazy and surreal.
We don't even have baseball in the UK but now I am a fan of the sport and Shohei Otani. Congrats to team Japan.

This is the big stage that Trout and Ohtani deserve but never had as Angels.
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❤
this match up was truly a gift from the baseball gods!
100mph+ throws. Ohtani the king in world baseball this decade.
never been a baseball fan, but cuz of this man Shohei Ohtani I might become a baseball fan. Gotta look into it
That last slider has to be one of the nastiest pitches ive ever seen
Every ball ohtani threw is so skillfu and fast
por primera vez, Ohtani vs Trout! Duelo legendario
Baseball players in japan are FREAKINGGG HANDSOME
I watch and play cricket but never baseball. This otani guy is making me watch baseball.
I dreamed about Ohtani vs Trout show down but US started the inning with a walk. Than the double play happened. Didn’t expect to feel the existence of god through a baseball game. It was like the god saying, nope we want Ohtani vs Trout.
