Molly Knight: A screaming line drive was headed for Shohei Ohtani’s face in the dugout last night and a Dodger bat boy Javier Herrera calmly caught it with his bare hands. Whatever he’s earning is not enough: ftw.usatoday.com/2024/06/dodg...

A Dodgers batboy heroically saved Shohei Ohtani with a sick barehanded catchftw.usatoday.com LOOK OUT SHOHEI!!!!!

@darthbluesky.bsky.social DARTH

omfg

Batboy or BatMAN Molly!

Yes they need to honor him on the field pre-game and promote him to Batman

three(?) MLB players flinching or ducking and the bat boy calmly catches it in his bare hands while chewing gum??? sign him up

The "sure, fuck yeah" head nod after the catch

watch shohei buy him a porsche 🥹

My thought exactly.

I don’t know if the Dodgers were among the first teams to professionalize their batboys, but here are 700 million reasons why that was a very good idea.

Dude in blue making the OHHHH face knew what almost happened.

That’s Shohei’s new interpreter, Will Ireton!

seemed like he might always look like that.

According to SI his name is Javier Herrera and the 38-year-old has been a Dodgers bat boy for 20 years.

Dudes rock

I bet he didn't see that coming (sorry)

DAMN!

Holy shit

!!!!
