COVINA, Calif. - A 9-year-old California boy knocked it out of the park when he dressed as a Los Angeles Dodgers' Shohei Ohtani baseball card as his Halloween costume. 

Cheyanne Cortez of Covnia said her son, Ryan, is a huge fan and recorded footage of her son in the home-made costume.

"He is a huge Dodgers fan and loves Ohtani. He is Ryan’s favorite baseball player ever. He has played baseball since he was four and has been attending Dodger games since he was a baby," Cortez told Storyful.

Ohtani’s decision came six years and one day after he first agreed to his deal with the Angels.

Ohtani became the first 50-50 player, hitting .310, leading the NL with 54 homers and 130 RBIs, and stealing 59 bases in 63 attempts.
