Athletes around the world strongly believe in luck as much as hard work. MLB’s two-way star, Shohei Ohtani, also has a shocking way of picking luck for himself.
Shohei outclassed legendary baseball players in the 2021 season, and some of the credit can be given to his odd routine. Ohtani picks up trash, well it’s not trash but ‘luck’ for him from the field.
Shohei Ohtani follows the lesson by his high-school baseball coach for luck
Japanese baseball star Shohei Ohtani is one of the most humble and grounded players in baseball history. Ohtani has been not only stunning the world with his skills, but with also one of his odd routines.
Ohtani is often seen picking up trash from the field, and a fan has complied a whole video of him randomly in garbage picking up act.

While it must be a matter of cleanliness, Ohtani has a deeper reason to do so. Back in high school, Ohtani’s coach gave him a lesson that he follows to date. His coach had said, ”If you consider the trash that people drop as luck, you can get good fortune by picking it up.”
Well, Ohtani has a lot of luck on his side from the ‘trash’ as he had broken unbeatable records this season. Ohtani has also overcome ‘trash talk’ and criticism during his career to become the AL-MVP star.
Ohtani overcome the worst to become the best
Injuries, harsh words, people pulling him down as a two-way player, Shohei has faced it all since his MLB debut in 2017. However, the epitome of patience and determination, Ohtani just kept working on his skills and shrugged off his hurdles.
In the 2021 season, Ohtani smashed home runs, pitched spectacularly, and became the best two-way baseball player in history. And, amidst all, Ohtani is not just a great player, but an inspirationally humble one at that. Even his competitors cannot hold back to appreciate him. What are your thoughts on his trash-picking routine for luck?
