In tribute to his uniform number, 17 sets are being offered. Online reservations started Tuesday.

The set comes with a showcase with a serial number, and Ohtani's signature engraved on its pedestal.

According to Major League Baseball, Ohtani is the first player since Babe Ruth in 1919 to start as a non-pitcher on opening day then start as a pitcher in his team's first 10 games. The 23-year-old was named the American League Rookie of the Month for April.
