Japanese baseball phenomenon, Shohei Ohtani, has been hailed as the 'World's Best Pitcher' by his peer, Yosuke. This follows Ohtani's recent performances in the major league games, where he consistently shone with his overwhelming pitching skills. While the date and venue are unspecified, the recognition is a significant highlight in Ohtani's career.
Baseball is not just a sport but also a part of the culture in Japan. The achievements and acclaims of Japanese players internationally, like Ohtani, greatly excite the Japanese audience. Moreover, the recognition from fellow professional, Yosuke, reinforces the pride for their homegrown talent and the standing of Japanese baseball globally.
The US and EU also highly recognize and value their athletes' achievements, especially in global competitions. However, the US places a greater emphasis on individual accolades, while the EU tends to focus more on team accomplishments.
