The highlight of this event is a jersey actually worn by Shohei Ohtani during the game in which he hit his 27th home run of the 2024 season—a season where he achieved an astonishing '54-59' record, surpassing the unprecedented '50-50' milestone of 50 home runs and 50 stolen bases. The jersey bears his autograph.
