Ohtani's 50-50 season

Shohei Ohtani of the Los Angeles Dodgers made history by becoming the first player in MLB to hit 50 home runs and steal 50 bases in a single season, achieving this milestone during a spectacular game against the Miami Marlins where he hit three homers and recorded two steals. Ohtani's performance included becoming the first player to hit three homers and steal two bases in a single game, finishing with six hits and 10 RBIs. His mentor, Hideki Kuriyama, expressed that he is not surprised by Ohtani's achievements and believes he has even greater potential. After his record-breaking game, Ohtani now has 51 stolen bases, approaching Ichiro Suzuki's record of 56 for Japanese players. Ohtani's season has been a remarkable one, solidifying his status as a two-way superstar despite not pitching this year due to elbow surgery.
