Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani is perhaps the best baseball player on the planet, but even he’s not immune to a brutal blooper.
During Game 3 of the NLCS at Citi Field on Wednesday night, Ohtani accidentally hit a foul ball so hard to the ground that it popped up into the air and nailed him in the groin.
This is seriously a batter’s worst nightmare, as 99 percent of foul balls usually land well outside of where you’re standing.
However, this hit somehow went right for Ohtani’s groin. Gravity didn’t do its job, and the Dodgers virtuoso looked to be in serious pain. Yowza.
