Shohei Ohtani has spent much of his eight-year MLB career rewriting the history books. Ohtani, when healthy, plays both ways, serving as the Los Angeles Dodgers, full-time designated hitter as well as one of their starting pitchers.

Shohei Ohtani homered for the fifth consecutive game on Wednesday, tying a Los Angeles Dodgers franchise record.

Los Angeles Dodgers designated hitter Shohei Ohtani set an impressive milestone with his first inning home run against the Minnesota Twins.

In Wednesday’s game against the Minnesota Twins, the Los Angeles Dodgers’ two-way star Ohtani tied a franchise record, hitting a home run in his fifth consecutive game. With a couple of players on offense struggling like Mookie Betts and Teoscar Hernández, Ohtani has had to pick up the slack, and he’s done so in a big way.

Shohei Ohtani matched a franchise record with a homer in the fifth straight game and Freddie Freeman drove in two runs with a two-out single in the ninth inning as the Los Angeles Dodgers rallied to beat the Minnesota Twins 4-3.

Correa, eight years later still the personification of evil to Los Angeles Dodgers fans because of the Houston Astros’ trash-banging sign stealing in the 2017 World Series, hit the final pitch of the game 399 feet to Dodger Stadium’s center-field wall.

Shohei Ohtani failed to extend his home run streak but the Los Angeles Dodgers started their road trip with a 5-2 win over the Boston Red Sox. Emmet Sheehan labored in the first inning as he threw 32 pitches despite the Red Sox only putting one in play.
