MLB playoffs 2025: Shohei Ohtani named NLCS MVP after 3 HRs, 10 Ks in all-time Game 4 performance
Meanwhile, on the mound, Ohtani just kept stomping on the Brewers. He finished with 10 strikeouts, three walks, two hits allowed and zero runs against one of MLB's peskiest lineups. He featured a seven-pitch mix, according to Baseball Savant, and topped out on that 100.3-mph fastball to Chourio. Even by itself, that's a star-level performance.
Alas, the ball was never caught, as it grazed the wall between Frelick bobbles, making it a force play at home. And somehow, the Brewers made 8-6-2 from about 400 feet away a reality, Hernández sliding in just late as William Contreras recognized the situation and stretched like a first baseman to ensure the out.
