That really was robbery. They have to take another look if that’s an option

They will contest that one for sure. It was hit 108mph and completely at up the first basemen. You can't expect that to be a routine play.

Found a rogue 2018 Factory Set and pulled this guy today... Going to hang onto it as I think he's going to have a big year.

2018 Topps Chrome update is really going to soar if Ohtani stays healthy.

I went to bed before he homered, but it's all about being quiet with his feet and hips. He has been pulling off early and his feet were moving all night, except for that homerun and triple.

Shothani! Hopefully now he will settle in, let's go!

Why would Ohtani move the price on Chrome Update?

Here's my steal of the off-season back from PSA. Think I paid $500 total for this and a Bowman Chrome RC batting auto . Here's to believing in the man.

He's batting today day before he starts too.

I don’t understand why his 2nd Chrome card would move the needle on a product that is already primarily carried by other more popular players.

He has the talent, no doubt, but can he put it all together? I sure hope so and can't wait to watch it.

He’s the SP today against the White Sox. I want to say I’m excited, but honestly based off his spring training pitching performances I’m not really expecting this to go well.

Oooooh, I like that!

Throw strikes, stay quiet in the feet, make history for the first time since 1903 - Showtime!

That being said, he should've had a 1,2,3 inning with 2 K's if we had an electronic strike zone
