50-50

What does 50-50 usually mean? We often talk about a 50-50 chance that something will happen. That means that it might happen, but it might not. Now Ohtani Shohei has given 50-50 a new meaning. When people say 50-50 about Ohtani, they mean 50 home runs and 50 stolen bases. Ohtani is the first baseball player ever to get 50 home runs and 50 stolen bases in one season. In the last week, he has been hitting and stealing in every game. As of yesterday, Ohtani’s record was 53 home runs and 55 stolen bases. I think he has a 50-50 chance of reaching 60-60.   (105 words)
