Shota Imanaga Goes Viral Celebrating Cubs' Postseason Clinch

Chicago Cubs pitcher Shota Imanaga went viral after repeatedly spraying beer directly into his face during the team's wild clubhouse celebration following a 2-1 victory over the Marlins that clinched a playoff berth. Imanaga humorously called the act "Japanese misogi" and "self-service." The 33-year-old left-hander finished the regular season 11-10 with a 3.74 ERA and 171 strikeouts over 173.3 innings, helping guide Chicago to the postseason for the second consecutive year.
