Shohei Ohtani's Gesture During Stolen Base Sparks Social Media Debate

The Dodgers star's actions after a stolen base against the Phillies have fans and former players divided over its interpretation.

Ohtani's gesture involved removing his glove and making a motion near his groin, leading to mixed reactions.
Social media quickly picked up on the incident, with some defending Ohtani and others criticizing him.
Former MLB player Jose Canseco called the gesture 'disgusting' while others suggested it was harmless.
ESPN did not address the gesture during the broadcast, cutting the replay before it occurred.
Ohtani continues to excel despite the controversy, leading the National League in home runs and being a top MVP candidate.
