It’s like “Superstar.”

Shohei Ohtani (LA Dodgers) has become the strongest hitter in the National League (NL).

Ohtani started as the first designated hitter in an away game against the Colorado Rockies in the 2024 Major League Baseball (MLB) regular season at Coors Field in Denver, Colorado on the 21st, and recorded one hit (one home run) and one RBI, one run and two walks from three times at bat.

He tied for home run lead with Marcell Ozuna (Atlanta Braves) until the previous day, and regained the NL lead with his 21st home run of the season.

As a result, Ohtani’s batting average for this season edged up from 0.317 to 0.318. With the team playing three on base with home runs, his on-base plus slugging percentage also rose from 0.388 and 0.608 to 0.391 and 0.615, respectively. His on-base plus slugging percentage (OPS) became 1.006.

In addition to the home run, Ohtani was active in the third base game, walking twice. 동행복권파워볼

The Dodgers, which won amid Ohtani’s stellar performance, solidified its lone lead in the NL West with 47 wins and 30 losses overall this season. Colorado ranked at the bottom of the league with 26 wins and 49 losses.
