Ohtani Nears Historic 50-Home Run Season

News summary

Shohei Ohtani continues his remarkable 2024 season, hitting his 47th home run and stealing his 48th base as he aims for MLB's first-ever 50-50 season. Ohtani's leadoff homer ignited a powerful first inning for the Dodgers, who saw back-to-back-to-back homers from Tommy Edman, Will Smith, and Max Muncy, leading to a 10-8 victory over the Chicago Cubs. Edman added another homer later in the game, giving him four in just 24 hours. The Dodgers avoided a series sweep and maintained their lead in the NL West. Ohtani's performance has him closing in on both personal and franchise records, reinforcing his MVP candidacy and solidifying the Dodgers' playoff position. Despite taking the season off from pitching due to Tommy John surgery, Ohtani remains a heavy favorite for the NL MVP award.
