Toronto superfan Drake had a lot to say about Shohei Ohtani and the Los Angeles Dodgers following their recent Game 5 loss.
The Dodgers have dropped two consecutive games after their dramatic 18th-inning victory, which featured a clutch home run from Freddie Freeman. Now facing elimination, they head to Toronto after a dominant pitching performance from Blue Jays’ Trey Yesavage, who racked up 12 strikeouts.
One of those strikeouts caught the attention of the rapper. Drake shared a photo of Yesavage walking back to the dugout after striking out Ohtani, captioning it, “Savage already otw to the dugout boss lol.”
As a recent Blue Jays fan and avid sports bettor, Drake’s comments may reveal some lingering frustration. Ohtani, the pitcher and slugger, famously passed on signing with Toronto before joining the Dodgers, which hasn’t gone unnoticed by Blue Jays fans. In fact, Ohtani has been met with “We don’t need you!” chants from the Toronto crowd.
Despite the trolling, the Dodgers superstar has remained mostly quiet since his phenomenal Game 3 performance, where he reached base nine times and hit two home runs.
The Blue Jays are aiming to prevent the Dodgers from winning back-to-back World Series titles—a feat last accomplished by the New York Yankees during their historic three-peat.
Drake might want to be careful with his trolling; it could just reignite that competitive fire in Ohtani and his Dodgers teammates, potentially fueling a comeback in the series.
