On Tuesday night, Ohtani hit his 48th home run of the season and he thoroughly punished the baseball. The blast came with Ohtani's Los Angeles Dodgers trailing the Miami Marlins 4–0 in the top of the third inning. On a 1-1 pitch, Darren McCaughan threw an 82 mph sweeper to the soon-to-be National League MVP.

Shohei Ohtani moved closer to a historic 50-50 season for an MLB hitter, stealing three bases to give him 46 for the season. He has 44 home runs with 24 games left to play. No player had ever posted 43 home runs and 43 stolen bases in a season before the Dodgers star.

Shohei Ohtani made yet more history on Sunday, becoming the first player in 130 years to rack up 85 extra-base hits and 45 steals in a single season.

Ohtani also had a single in Friday's game, though he did not attempt to steal a base. The Dodgers have 21 games remaining and Ohtani is five homers and four steals short of becoming baseball's first 50-50 player. At it stands, the 45 homers and 46 steals are the highest individual totals by anyone in a single season.
