Shohei Ohtani continues to show off his MVP talent for the Los Angeles Angels. On Friday, he showed off all his tools.

Ohtani slugged two home runs in the Angels’ 8-7 win over the Baltimore Orioles. In the bottom of the third, he absolutely annihilated a pitch to right.

As if that weren’t enough, he went crushed his 30th home run of the season in the next inning.

But his contributions didn’t stop there. The Orioles understandably wanted no part of Ohtani in the bottom of the ninth and gave him an unintentional intentional walk. He stole second base. And then he raced around third to score on a rocket line drive from Jared Walsh.

The play was reviewed, but Ohtani was ruled safe. There are very few players who have the combination of elite power and elite speed that Ohtani possesses. He showed off those skills in helping his Angels capture the win.
