Excellent news, unhealthy information for Shohei Ohtani — The excellent news?? He hit his twenty seventh house run of the season on Tuesday. The unhealthy?? The ball landed proper on slightly child’s noggin.
The dinger went down in the course of the seventh inning of the L.A. Dodgers’ 6-5 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks … when he took Justin Martinez‘s pitch over 400 ft and into the right-field bleachers.

The hit had an exit velocity of 112 miles per hour … and sadly, one younger fan felt each little bit of it — taking the ball off his brow as a handful of spectators tried to catch it.
No phrase on how the youngin’ is doing … however here is hoping he a minimum of obtained ice after the incident.
Talking of Ohtani bombs, the spotlight got here proper earlier than the Japanese celebrity introduced he is not going to compete on this 12 months’s Residence Run Derby … as he continues to rehab his elbow damage.
There is a good probability the Dodgers observe down the kiddo and hook him up with some merch … however we take it he’d really feel MUCH higher if he obtained a fast meet-and-greet with the $700 million man.
Relaxation up, child!!
