ONLY 5 OF THESE ONLY 1 BGS 9.5 HISTORIC YEAR , CARD , PLAYER ……PHENOMAfter the results of the 2019 and 2020 seasons, Ohtani spent the offseason overhauling himself.[74][75] He adjusted his diet based on blood-sample analysis and started squatting heavy again, focusing on strengthening his lower half and bulking up to 225 pounds.[74][75] He threw bullpen sessions earlier than usual and took batting practice against live pitching, an offseason first for him.[74][75] Ohtani also embraced data and technology to optimize his training and recovery by visiting Driveline Baseball, a popular player-development destination for underperforming pitchers, where he also tinkered with a changeup.[74] Furthermore, in spring training, the Angels general manager Perry Minasian, manager Joe Maddon, and Ohtani agreed to allow Ohtani to play without limitations or restrictions and drop the “Ohtani Rules”,[76] a plan the Angels mirrored from Ohtani’s schedule in Japan and had implemented since his 2018 rookie season that restricted his usage to a schedule of pitching once a week and hitting only three to four times between starts.[75] Free of the “Ohtani Rules”, Ohtani would be in charge of his own daily diagnostics with Maddon to determine his pitching and hitting schedule.[77]On February 8, Ohtani agreed to a two-year $8.5 million contract with the Angels, avoiding arbitration.[78]In his first pitching start against the Chicago White Sox on Sunday Night Baseball on April 4, 2021, he threw 4⅔ innings, allowing one earned run and two unearned runs. During that start, he struck out seven batters.[79] Additionally, Ohtani batted 2nd in the lineup.[80] He went 1 for 3, hitting a 450-foot solo home run on the first pitch he faced.After skipping a scheduled start against the Toronto Blue Jays due to a blister,[81] Ohtani made his second start of the season on April 20, against the Texas Rangers. Under a 75-pitch limit, he threw 4 scoreless innings, striking out 7 batters and allowing 1 hit.[82] In his third start on April 26, once again against the Texas Rangers, Ohtani collected his first win of the season. He pitched 5 innings, allowing 4 runs in the first inning and striking out 9. Offensively, he went 2 for 3 with 2 RBIs. Ohtani also became the first player in nearly 100 years to start a game on the mound while also entering the day leading the Majors in home runs. Such an event had not occurred since Babe Ruth took the mound as starting pitcher for the Yankees on June 13, 1921, leading the AL with 19 home runs.[83][84]All-Star debut[edit]On June 18, Ohtani was elected to the 2021 Home Run Derby, becoming both the first pitcher and the first Japanese player to do so.[85] Three days later, Ohtani was named AL Player of the Weekfor the third time in his career after hitting six home runs and picking up a win as starting pitcher.[86] Two weeks later, he was again named AL Player of the Week for the fourth in his career after hitting six home runs and recording a 1.543 OPS with eight RBIs in six games to help the Angels go 5–1.[87] On June 23, he made history yet again as he hit for himself as a pitcher and the second batter in the lineup against the Giants with designated hitter rules in place, making it the first time in MLB history that an American League team chose not to use a DH while a National League team utilized one.[88]For the first time in his career, Ohtani was named the American League Player of the Month for June, as he hit .309/.423/.889 with 13 home runs and a 1.312 OPS as a hitter and earned two wins as a pitcher.[89] On July 3 against the Baltimore Orioles, Ohtani became the first player in American League history to reach 30 home runs and 10 stolen bases in the first 81 games of the season.[90]On July 4, Ohtani made history by becoming the first player to be selected as an All-Star as both a position player and a pitcher.[91] He had already been selected as the starting designated hitter by the fans for the 2021 All-Star Game on July 1,[92] while being voted by the players as one of five starting pitchers to make the American League roster on July 4.[91] On July 7, Ohtani hit his 32nd home run of the year, a solo shot off of Boston Red Sox starter Eduardo Rodríguez, passing Hideki Matsui’s mark in 2004, for the most home runs hit during a season by a Japanese-born player in MLB.[93] Additionally, Ohtani won the Best Major League Baseball Player ESPY Award, becoming the first Japanese player to win the award.[94]Ohtani participated in the Home Run Derby on July 12. In the first round, he hit 22 home runs, tying him with opponent Juan Soto. A tiebreaker round saw Ohtani and Soto tied again at 28 home runs. While Soto won the round after a second tiebreaker, Ohtani set a record for the most home runs in the Derby of at least 500 feet with six.[95][96] For participating in the Derby, Ohtani received $150,000, which he proceeded to donate his earnings to approximately 30 Angels support employees to thank them for their work, which included trainers, clubhouse workers and media relations staffers. Ohtani had decided that he was going to use the money in this manner no matter what his Derby outcome was.[97]On July 13, Ohtani made All-Star Game history again as the starting pitcher and leadoff designated hitter for the American League.[98] After pitching a perfect first inning, he also became the first player in major league history to compete in the Home Run Derby and earn a win as the starting pitcher in the All-Star Game. Additionally, he became the first leadoff man to throw a 100-mph fastball in the All-Star Game.[99]Two-way season[edit]Ohtani in September 2021 against the Texas RangersOn July 26, in his 15th pitching start of the season against the Colorado Rockies, Ohtani became the first pitcher in league history to register 100 strikeouts while holding a major-league-leading 35 home runs before the end of July, as no pitcher had ever recorded triple-digit strikeouts and added more than nine home runs in the same season.[100] Additionally, in the same game, Ohtani became the first pitcher to throw a scoreless top half and record a hit, a RBI, a stolen base and a scored run while playing in an AL ballpark since Luis Tiant did so for the Minnesota Twins on April 26, 1970.[101]Ohtani would finish the month of July as the first player in Major League history to ever have at least 37 home runs and 15 stolen bases before the end of July.[102] And for the second straight month, Ohtani also earned his second American League Player of the Month Award, becoming the first back-to-back Player of the Month Award winner in either league since Chase Headley in August and September 2012, and the first in the AL since Josh Hamilton in 2012. For the month of July, he produced nine home runs, 19 RBIs, 16 walks and a .282/.396/.671 slash line in 23 games at the plate, and a 1.35 ERA with 17 strikeouts and one walk in 20 innings.[103]On August 18, Ohtani pitched a dominant 8 innings against the Detroit Tigers, setting a career high by throwing 90 pitches to record 24 outs in eight innings while also hitting a solo homer for his 40th of the year in the eighth inning to lead the Angels to a 3–1 win. He became the first left-handed batter in Angels history to reach 40 home runs, surpassing lefty Reggie Jackson’s 1982 record of 39. He also became just the fourth AL pitcher to throw at least eight innings and hit a homer in a game since the DH was instituted in 1973, joining Jon Garland in June 2006, Kris Benson in June 2006, and Bobby Witt in June 1997.[104]Ohtani would cap off the month of August by stealing his 20th base in a game on August 28 against the San Diego Padres, becoming the first Japanese-born player[105] and the first player in Angels history to hit 40 home runs and have 20 stolen bases in the same season. He joined Alex Rodriguez in 2007 and Ken Griffey Jr. in 1999 as the 3rd AL player to accomplish this feat before September. He also became the first AL player to reach both of those totals in a season since Curtis Granderson in 2011.[106]On September 21, after hitting his 45th home run of the season, Ohtani became the first player to hit at least 45 homers and steal 20 bases in a season since Alex Rodriguez in 2007.[107] And on September 25, Ohtani joined Willie Mays as the only players with at least 45 home runs, 20 stolen bases and six triples in a season,[108] when he hit two triples in consecutive plate appearances, becoming the first Angels player to do so since Peter Bourjos in April 2011.[109]From September 22 to September 25, Ohtani drew 13 walks in a 4-game span, tying an AL/NL record set by Babe Ruth in 1930, Bryce Harper in 2016, and Yasmani Grandal in 2021. He drew a career-high four walks on September 22 and three walks on September 23, against the Houston Astros, followed by four more walks on September 24 and two walks on September 25 against the Seattle Mariners.[109] His 11 walks drawn in the three game span also tied the MLB record set by Harper in 2016.[110]MVP award and other honors[edit]The Angels announced on September 25 that Ohtani was named as both the team’s Los Angeles Angels Player of the Year of 2021 and the team’s Nick Adenhart Pitcher of the Year Award, as voted by his teammates.[111]On September 26, Ohtani reached the 150-strikeout milestone against the Seattle Mariners and finished the year unbeaten at home, going 6–0 with a 1.95 ERA in 13 starts. Ohtani’s home ERA was the lowest by an Angels starter since Jered Weaver in 2011. He also became the sixth starter in AL or NL history to make at least 13 home starts without a losing decision and an ERA below 2.00 in a season.[112] In the last game of the season against the Seattle Mariners, Ohtani passed teammate Mike Trout’s 45 home runs in a single season to finish with the second-most home runs in a season in Angels history at 46, trailing only Troy Glaus’ 47 home runs in 2000.[113]For the year, Ohtani finished his pitching campaign by making 23 starts on the mound, going 9–2 with a 3.18 ERA, 156 strikeouts, 1.09 WHIP and 44 walks in 130 1/3 innings.[113] On the hitting side, Ohtani finished with an American League-leading 20 intentional walks, which was the most by an AL player since Mike Trout in 2018. Ohtani, who batted .257/.372/.592, including 46 home runs – runner-up for the MLB lead in homers, 100 RBI, 103 runs and 26 steals in 155 games and 639 plate appearances, hit several milestones to close his season, reaching both 100 RBIs and 100 runs for the first time in his career. He also tied for the MLB lead with eight triples to go along with 26 stolen bases. Ohtani became the first player in MLB history to have at least 45 homers, 25 stolen bases, 100 RBIs, 100 runs, and eight triples in a season and the second player in AL history to record at least 45 homers and 25 stolen bases in a season, joining Jose Canseco in 1998.[113]According to Baseball-Reference.com, Ohtani led the league with a wins above replacement (WAR) value of 9.1 and finished third in home runs (46), fourth in slugging percentage (.592), fifth in OPS (.965), first in triples (8), fifth in drawing walks (96), eight in stolen bases (26), second in extra base hits (80), second in intentional walks (20), fifth in OPS+ (158), and first in power-speed number (33.2).[114]Ohtani was unanimously voted the American League Most Valuable Player, becoming the 23rd pitcher and first designated hitter to win the award.[115][116] For the 2021 All-MLB Team, Ohtani is the only player to be named to both teams, first team and second team, in the same season (as a designated hitter and starting pitcher respectively).[117] He became the first pitcher, the first Japanese player and the first Angels player to win the Edgar Martínez Outstanding Designated Hitter Award.[118][119] Ohtani was also awarded the Silver Slugger Award for being the best offensive player at the designated hitter position in the American League,[120] and was named to Time 100’s list of most influential people of 2021,[121] which culminated to many end-of-the-season-accolades. He was named Associated Press AP Athlete of the Year,[122] Sporting News Athlete of the Year,[123] Baseball Digest Player of the Year[124] and Baseball America Major League Player of the Year.[125]From his MLB peers he was given Sporting News Player of the Year Award,[126] Players Choice Player of the Year Award, and Players Choice American League Outstanding Player Award.[127]Additionally, Ohtani’s 2021 season was recognized for two Guinness World Records titles: (1) the first MLB player to achieve 100+ innings and record 100+ strikeouts as a pitcher, and 100+ RBIs, hits and runs as a batter in a single season and (2) the first player to start the MLB All-Star Game as a pitcher and a designated hitter.[128] He also became the 16th recipient of the Commissioner’s Historic Achievement Award, awarded by Commissioner Rob Manfred,[3] who formally recognized Ohtani’s 2021 season as “historically significant” and “unprecedented”, calling it “so special that it was important to recognize the historic achievement that took place in 2021 with an award just about 2021.”[3] Ohtani was offered Japan’s national honor, the People’s Honour Award, by the Prime Minister of Japan in recognition of his accomplishments, but Ohtani rejected it, saying it was “still too early” for such an award.[129]On December 22, 2021, Sporting News released the article “The 50 greatest seasons in sports history, ranked.” In it, Ohtani’s 2021 season was ranked No.1, topping great seasons by athletes such as Babe Ruth, Michael Jordan, Tom Brady, Wayne Gretzky, and Lionel Messi.[130]
