Although the team lost, Shohei Ohtani (31, Los Angeles Dodgers)' upward trajectory remained unchanged. Ohtani improved his performance by playing three-hit games.
The Los Angeles Dodgers had a home game against the Los Angeles Angels at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, California on the 19th (Korea time).
Ohtani, who started as the first and designated hitter of the Los Angeles Dodgers on the day, had three hits and one RBI from five times at bat. He had three hits in his first three-hit game since the 10th.
Accordingly, Ohtani had a batting average of 0.313, 16 homers, 30 RBIs, 50 runs and 57 hits, and an on-base percentage of 0.408 OPS 1.073 in 45 games of the season.
He ranks eighth in batting average in the National League, first in homers, first in runs scored, sixth in on-base percentage and second in OPS. Notably, he ranks first in homers alone in the entire Major League.
The current pace of 55 home runs is higher than the 54 home runs he hit in a single season last year. His OPS is also higher than 1.036 last year.
Ohtani's batting average and OPS fell to the low 0.270s and low 0.800s, respectively, raising concerns. However, these were only unfounded.
At the beginning of this month, he began to hit hard, and is already surpassing last year's batting performance. Ohtani's unique driving force came out.
In particular, Ohtani added four homers from the 15th to the 17th. As a result, he beat Aaron Judge to become the No. 1 home run in the Major League.
On the 18th, Ohtani briefly slowed down with two hits and no hits in six at-bats, but he played three hits again on the same day, signaling that there was no slump.
However, the Los Angeles Dodgers bowed their heads after losing three consecutive games of the Los Angeles Angels' home games from Thursday to Sunday. It is still in the lead position, but the gap is still very small. 메이저놀이터
