World Baseball Classic: Shohei Ohtani's cap heading to Baseball Hall of Fame after his MVP performance

Los Angeles Angels star Shohei Ohtani is already heading to the National Baseball Hall of Fame ... or, at least, part of his uniform is going. The cap Ohtani wore throughout the 2023 World Baseball Classic is heading to the Hall of Fame following Ohtani's MVP performance in the tournament.

That's not the only piece of memorabilia heading to the Hall. Five other items from team Japan — Masataka Yoshida's bat, Munetaka Murakami's batting gloves and helmet, Shota Imanaga's jersey and a pullover worn by manager Hideki Kuriyama — will also make the trip.
