Guerrero Jr., who hit a crucial two-run homer off Ohtani in Game 4, made the comments in an interview. While acknowledging the Dodgers' 'dream team' status, the Blue Jays star specifically targeted Ohtani's pitching performance.
'Honestly? Shohei Ohtani wasn't that tough to hit,' Guerrero said, instead praising Dodgers pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto as 'nasty' and 'the MVP.' Ohtani struggled in the World Series with an ERA of 7.56 over 8.1 innings. Despite Guerrero's comments, the Dodgers won back-to-back titles.
