Whenever anyone talks about Ohtani being old before he came into his own all I need to do is point to this article. Amazing.

Fingers and legs crossed ladies and gents. No injuries, no confidence shaking events, and no odd mechanics popping up tonight that he has to deal with the rest of the year.

Note that he'd already turned away and taken a couple of steps before that last practice shot even landed.
I think he'll hit one even further in the contest.
