"He won two Super Bowl titles, made eight Pro Bowls, and was a six-time First Team All-Pro. For good measure, he then played parts of nine MLB seasons for five different franchises. In one of those full seasons, Sanders hit .283 while stealing 38 bases. Another season saw him hit .304 with eight homers, 14 triples, and 26 stolen bases."
"The energetic sports personality had not heard about Ohtani's stat line, and as the reporter relayed the 10-strikeout/three-homer performance, Sanders said "that's ridiculous, man. He did what?!" He then went further into shock and appreciation for what Ohtani did. The same reporter pressed Sanders and asked whether that was the best individual performance of any athlete regardless of sport for a single game."
Deion Sanders achieved elite success in both the NFL and MLB, winning two Super Bowls, making eight Pro Bowls, and playing nine MLB seasons with notable batting and base-stealing seasons. Sanders praised Shohei Ohtani after a Game 4 NLCS performance that included 10 strikeouts and three home runs. Sanders expressed shock and admiration, calling the performance unbelievable and unfathomable and suggesting immediate recognition like an in-game MVP. Sanders hopes Ohtani's achievements open the door for other two-way players and noted that multiple pitchers possess skills that could enable both pitching and hitting roles.
