Player Profile
Shohei Ohtani
Shohei Ohtani
Two-Way Player · Baseball · Active
Shohei Ohtani is a Japanese professional baseball designated hitter and pitcher for the Los Angeles Dodgers of Major League Baseball (MLB). Nicknamed "Shotime", he has previously played in MLB for the Los Angeles Angels and in Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB) for the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters. Because of his contributions as a hitter and as a pitcher, which make him a rare two-way player, Ohtani's prime seasons have been considered among the greatest in baseball history, with some likening them to the early career of Babe Ruth.

Fair — 70/100
Blown / glare
Deep shadow
GlareLighting: uneven
Photo issues
  • blown-out highlights on the bottom-right — glare is hiding detail
The card stands out distinctly against the dark background, allowing all four edges to be isolated cleanly. However, uneven lighting creates blown-out glare across the bottom-right corner and surface, which erases fine texture and can hide micro-defects from accurate automated assessment. Using soft, diffused lighting—such as indirect daylight or light bounced off a wall—along with an ultra-sharp close-up will ensure every corner and surface detail is clearly visible.

💡

Not getting the grade you expected?

Your photo quality directly affects the AI's ability to read your card accurately. Here are the most common things that can affect your grade — and how to fix them:

🖼️
Use a plain background
Patterned or colorful backgrounds make it harder for the AI to detect your card's true edges. Place your card on a solid white or light-colored surface before photographing.
🃏
Scan raw cards — no sleeves or toploaders
Penny sleeves and toploaders reflect light and blur fine details. The AI can't accurately assess corners, edges, or surface through plastic. Remove all holders before scanning.
🔍
Fill the frame — get close
The more of the image your card occupies, the more detail the AI can see. Small or distant cards lose corner sharpness and surface detail. Crop in so the card fills most of the photo.
💡
Use even, shadow-free lighting
Shadows, glare, and camera flash create artifacts that look like surface defects to the AI. Use soft, diffused lighting from multiple angles — or scan on a flatbed scanner for the most consistent results.
📐
Keep the card flat and straight
A tilted or bent card distorts centering measurements and can create false edge wear readings. Place the card flat on a solid surface and shoot directly from above.
✅ Fix these issues and rescan — you'll often see better grade on the second attempt. Every credit saves you from wasting a $25–$80 grading submission fee.
