Mookie Betts had Dodger followers clenching their butt cheeks on Wednesday … when his foul ball virtually took out Shohei Ohtani within the dugout — however fortunately, the $700 MILLION man took cowl simply in time!!
The horrifying second went down towards the Rockies on Wednesday … proper after Ohtani launched a 448-foot homer within the first inning.
As Ohtani celebrated with catcher Austin Barnes on the bench, Betts was as much as bat — and after making contact on a pitch, the ball shot proper towards the Japanese celebrity.
Ohtani had his head on a swivel and shortly ducked with Barnes … and the hilarious, but scary, scene was caught on the stay broadcast.
“That must be, like, a no-sit zone,” the broadcaster mentioned. “Particularly for Shohei.”
Ain’t that the reality — in spite of everything, the very last thing anybody needs is to see the three-time MVP sidelined with an harm at his personal teammate’s expense.
President Donald Trump was simply gushing over the four-time All-Star on the White Home final month … when the Dodgers had been on the town to rejoice the World Collection.
Fortunately, POTUS did not jinx the man!!
