Every sport has its own GOATS. In soccer, it is Lionel Messi; in basketball, it’s Michael Jordan. But when it comes to football, for most fans, there is only one, and that is Tom Brady. And for many baseball fans, it would be Babe Ruth, but there is one guy who is looking to dethrone him. According to many fans, Shohei Ohtani is currently the best player in baseball and is also making a good case for being the all-time greatest. And guess what Tom Brady agrees.

After Shohei Ohtani put up that otherworldly performance in Game 4 of the NLCS against the Brewers, the whole world was in awe, including Brady. During the FOX Sports interview, Brady said, “I’m embarrassed that there’s a Shohei Otani photo and then me. That’s insane… I think I chose the right sport… what I saw the other night was one of the greatest performances in history.”

Shohei Ohtani awoke in a slump but transformed Game 4 into pure baseball magic for Dodgers fans everywhere. He hit three home runs, including a 469-foot blast over Dodger Stadium, striking out ten batters flawlessly. Every pitch, every swing, felt historic, earning him the NLCS MVP and leaving spectators truly breathless.

Despite the spotlight, Ohtani handed the trophy to the team, highlighting that the Dodgers’ victories come from collective effort. Through translator Will Ireton, he invited fans in L.A., Japan, and beyond to celebrate together. It was a reminder that even in moments of individual brilliance, greatness is amplified when shared.

Watching from afar, Tom Brady smiled, knowing he chose football over baseball, yet recognized Ohtani’s genius instantly. Drafted by the Montreal Expos in 1995, Brady excelled at baseball, but Michigan and football shaped him instead. Now, even Brady admits that competing with Ohtani’s rare two-way dominance would have been impossible for anyone.

Shohei Ohtani, just seven MLB seasons in, already owns records others can only dream about achieving in decades. He created the 50-50 club, hit three postseason homers while striking out ten, and even inspired a rule in his name. With every swing and strikeout, he solidifies a path toward becoming arguably the greatest baseball player of all time.

If Tom Brady admired Ohtani’s brilliance, the baseball world should take notice immediately and seriously. Shohei Ohtani’s two-way dominance rewrites history, leaving both pitchers and sluggers scrambling to catch up. Brady may have chosen wisely, but even he might struggle facing Ohtani in a hypothetical matchup.

Shohei Ohtani has got legends switching teams after his MVP performance

There are good performances, there are great ones, and then there’s the kind that makes even legends question their loyalty. Shohei Ohtani’s latest act of dominance didn’t just light up Dodger Stadium; it made waves all the way to the Bronx. Somewhere between admiration and betrayal, a Yankees icon found himself applauding a Dodgers superstar. Because when Ohtani does his thing, baseball loyalties start to wobble.

Yankees legend CC Sabathia, once the Bronx’s fiercest voice, stunned fans with a simple declaration on X: “Best baseball player of all time because… enjoy the Sho!” The post came after Shohei Ohtani’s historic Game 4 in the NLCS, where he hit three home runs and struck out ten. Watching a Dodgers star do what no player in MLB history has ever done, even Sabathia couldn’t stay neutral.

Ohtani’s ability to dominate as both pitcher and hitter gives him a distinct edge over Aaron Judge. While Judge led the majors with a .331 average, 53 homers, and a 1.144 OPS, Ohtani’s two-way brilliance changes everything. When a player strikes out ten while crushing 469-foot homers at 116.9 mph, the debate feels unfair.

Maybe Sabathia just said what every baseball fan secretly knows but won’t admit. Shohei Ohtani isn’t rewriting records anymore; he’s rewriting definitions. And somewhere in the Bronx, Aaron Judge probably understands exactly why.
