IShowSpeed strikes out David Ortiz in viral live stream moment

As shared via MLB on X, the moment quickly made the rounds online.

“IShowSpeed just struck out David Ortiz on his live stream,” the MLB reported.

The interaction took place in the Dominican Republic, where Ortiz met up with Speed during his Caribbean tour.

Before the strikeout, Ortiz was actually teaching Speed hitting fundamentals, even showing him how players in the Dominican Republic use bottle caps and sticks to sharpen hand-eye coordination.

But when the roles flipped, Speed managed to get the Hall of Famer to swing and miss, sparking a wild on-stream celebration.
