UNCOVERED: Shohei ohtani s subtle celebration move after crushing hr in nlcs was too cool - The Untold Story

Shohei Ohtani NLCS Dodgers MLB

Shohei Ohtani and the Dodges lead the Mets 2-1 in the NLCS after winning Game 3, 8-0. | @FS1

The Los Angeles Dodgers took control of the NLCS on Wednesday night with an impressive 8-0 victory over the New York Mets in Game 3 at Citi Field to go up 2-1 in the series.

While the Dodgers' pitching staff was once again dominant, the NL West champs finally got a big hit from their all-world star, Shohei Ohtani, who stepped up in the top of the eighth inning and absolutely crushed a three-run homer into the upper deck in right field.

Ohtani had been in a bit of a slump until this at-bat but all it took was one beautiful swing for everyone to forget about that:
