What did Shohei Ohtani achieve that might have given him the boost in the MVP race?

Angels two-way star Shohei Ohtani has pitched in one hundred and sixty-two innings. With it, ‘Shotime’ became the first player in the history of Major League Baseball to qualify for the league leaderboards as a pitcher and a hitter both in the same year.  Whereas, Judge became the new title holder of AL’s most home runs in a season by surpassing the legendary Roger Maris’ 61 homers.

Meanwhile, Ohtani himself once spoke about this ongoing MVP race. Although the man is enjoying Judge breaking records, he is pretty confident in himself. Shotime feels he is much better this season than last, in which he became the AL’s Most Valuable Player.
