Los Angeles Dodgers designated hitter Shohei Ohtani blasted a home run and double against the Philadelphia Phillies on Monday, giving him a record-breaking 67 extra-base hits through 110 games this season.
Shohei Ohtani has made a habit of breaking records ever since he signed with the Los Angeles Dodgers, and he didn't waver from that tradition on Monday.
The 30-year-old designated hitter played a major part in his team's 5-3 win over the Philadelphia Phillies, starting with his game-tying sacrifice fly in the bottom of the third. He added a double and a stolen base in the fifth, then provided the Dodgers with some much-needed insurance via a leadoff home run in the eighth.Beyond that, Ohtani has now recorded 29 doubles in 2024.
As a result, Ohtani has done everything in his power to justify the 10-year, $700 million contract that Los Angeles awarded him last December. No one in league history has ever boasted a pricetag that high, but he has largely found a way to live up to it. Ohtani, who won AL MVP with the Los Angeles Angels in 2021 and 2023, is one of the leading contenders to win NL MVP here in 2024. He has certainly been the Dodgers' most valuable player, outproducing co-stars Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman in every major category.himself, placing a lot of weight on Ohtani's shoulders as of late. Los Angeles is just 0.5 games back of Philadelphia for the best record in the NL, so he has seemingly handled the situation well.
