Shohei Ohtani must have expected boos during every World Series at-bat at the Rogers Centre, but Blue Jays fans kicked it up a notch in Games 1 and 2. "We don't need you!" chants started in the top of the ninth in Game 1, with Ohtani representing the last out of the game. You kind of have to hand it to the Toronto faithful; they were kind of funny.
It all stems, of course, from the fact that Ohtani is playing for the season's highest honors in anything but a Blue Jays uniform. He took $700 million from the Dodgers instead, after the Blue Jays offered him the same amount and treated him a full schmooze-fest that sent Ohtani home with a duffel bag filled with free merch, and committed the unforgivable sin of hurting Toronto fans' feelings.
