Blue Jays first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. challenged Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani's pitching ability after their World Series matchup. Guerrero stated, 'Shohei Ohtani wasn't that tough to hit' while praising Dodgers pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto as 'nasty' and 'MVP' material.
Ohtani struggled in the World Series with an ERA of 7.56 over 8.1 innings, allowing 11 hits and 7 earned runs. Despite this, the Dodgers still won the championship in seven games, with Guerrero hitting a two-run homer off Ohtani in Game 4.
