Shohei Ohtani achieves a milestone by hitting 50 home runs and stealing 20 bases in consecutive years, becoming the only player in history to do so.

In the matchup between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Seattle Mariners on the 27th, Shohei Ohtani went 0-for-3 but reached base via a walk and successfully stole a base, becoming the first player in history to achieve “50 home runs and 20 steals in a single season” twice.

Shohei Ohtani has accumulated 54 home runs this season. Although he did not record a hit in today’s three at-bats, after receiving a walk in his second plate appearance, he promptly completed his 20th stolen base of the year. This marks his second remarkable season achieving “50 home runs and 20 steals,” following last year’s “54 home runs and 59 steals.”

Notably, this season Ohtani has scored 140 runs, hit 50 home runs, and stolen 20 bases, becoming only the second player in history to reach these numbers, with the first being Alex Rodriguez (“A-Rod”) in 2007.

In this game, Shohei Ohtani went 0-for-3 with one walk and his 20th stolen base, extending his on-base streak to 30 games; he also struck out once, leaving his batting average at .279 after the game.
