FromJapan got a reaction from AngelsLakersFan in 大谷翔平 - The Official Shohei Ohtani Thread
In Japan, "Ohtani-san (in Japanese katakana)" has entered the Twitter trend due to the influence of broadcasting (Big Fly Ohtani-san!).
"San" means a Japanese suffix, a frank and non-sexual honorific title.
For Japanese fans, it becomes a morning routine to see if Ohtani-san hits a home run.
The header of MLB Twitter has become a hot topic among Nippon-Ham Fighters fans.

Thank you for pointing out my mistake.
Tokyo Dome special rule
Q What if the hit ball is caught in a hole or gap in the ceiling?
A dead ball. If it is within the fair area, both the batter and the runner will be given ground rule double.
So, it was a double instead of a home run.

I mistake.
Sorry, it should be "2016 practice game at Tokyo Dome for 2017 WBC (World Baseball Classic) "
Ohtani-san made a goal achievement sheet when he entered high school.
https://www.sponichi.co.jp/baseball/news/2013/02/02/gazo/G20130202005109500.html
In the right side 3 cells of the center 9 cells,,
Sharpness (of pitching)
Speed 160km/h (100miles/h)
Breaking ball
I think he wanted to play an active role as a pitcher.
The goal is to surpass Yusei Kikuchi (Mariners), who was also born in Iwate prefecture and was a senior in high school.
In the center of the goal achievement sheet, there is "Nominated by 8 teams in Japanese professional baseball draft".
Kikuchi was nominated by 6 teams.

Sorry in Japanese English!
Nov. 13, 2106 WBC (World Baseball Classic) at Tokyo Dome home run
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aly3AnfUHdA
Ohtani's hit ball entered the gap between the glass fiber membranes on the ceiling of Tokyo Dome.
Tokyo Dome has an air support structure, the height of the highest part of the ceiling is 61.69m (about 202ft) above the playing surface.
The height of the roof is based on the data of the tallest fly by Babe Ruth.
# At the sports news shows in Japan, it is excited about Ohtani's participation (as a first Japanese player and the first pitcher) in the Home Run Derby.
# Some people are worried about breaking the batting form and excessive impact on his body.

On April 27, Mr. Kuriyama (Nippon-Ham Fighters manager) commented on Ohtani-san, "He is instinctively playing as a Yakyu Kozoh. That's the best thing to do."
"Yakyu Kozoh" means a boy who is enthusiastic about baseball, in Japanese.

Japanese media interview on June 17 to Ohtani.
"The spectators is now unlimited, what do you feel?"
"I felt nice. The players will be more motivated if the fans enter. I think I can concentrate more on hitting and pitching, so I'm very happy that the fans come to the ballpark."
