Today in 2015, Dave Roberts is hired as manager of the Dodgers, replacing the recently departed Don Mattingly. In 9 seasons, Roberts has led LA to 8 NL West titles, 4 NL pennants, 2 WS titles (should be 3), and 5 100-win seasons. The man is going to the HOF.
Since RBI became official in 1920, only one MLB player has had, over the course of his entire career (same game or not),
a game with 10+ RBI
a game with 6+ hits
a game with 5+ XBH
a game with 3+ HR
a game with 2+ SB
That one player is Shohei Ohtani. He did all of it today.
Shohei Ohtani just had one of the greatest performances in MLB history:
6-for-6
3 Home runs
2 Doubles
1 Single
10 Runs Batted In
4 Runs Scored
2 Stolen Bases
He became the first player in MLB history to reach the 50/50 (and now 51/51) club.
Greatest. Of. All. Time.
Wow. I never thought I’d be saying this. Thank you to the Television Academy for recognizing The Eric Andre Show. To Adult Swim for giving our ideas a place to thrive. To the team that made this possible, I am in awe every day of the lengths you go to to put on the craziest show our minds can concoct. To the fans, thank you for receiving every rancid joke, stray ball, and wild skit with open eyes, open ears, and open arms. Love you all. 🏆
