Deion Sanders knows a thing or two about being a multi-faceted superstar. But just like everyone else, he's in awe of what Shohei Ohtani has done in baseball this year.
Deion Sanders knows a thing or two about being a uniquely gifted athlete. He also knows how hard it is to hit home runs and steal bases at the MLB level. So it turned heads when the Colorado head football coach spent part of his midweek press conference showering praise on Shohei Ohtani, the Los Angeles Dodgers superstar who last week became the first player in MLB history to hit 50 home runs and steal 50 bases in the same season. 'Ohtani, he's incredible, man,' Sanders said Tuesday.
Despite decent career numbers — a .263 batting average over 641 career games — Sanders has previously described hitting a baseball as his most difficult challenge in sports, which probably helps explain why he has such admiration for Ohtani. When asked specifically about Ohtani's historic 50-50 mark, Sanders expressed sheer awe. 'It doesn't make sense,' Sanders said. 'I think the only person who probably could have done that was Canseco or Barry Bonds.
