Shohei Ohtani hit a home run in a 4-3 win over the Chicago White Sox, becoming the first Dodger since Roy Campanella in 1955 to have nine straight games with an RBI.
Shohei Ohtani has taken to life as a Los Angeles Dodger like a duck to water, helping the team to first place in the National League West standings – and hitting even more milestones along the way. On Tuesday, the 29-year-old hit a leadoff home run in the team’s 4-3 victory over the Chicago White Sox to become the first Dodger since Roy Campanella in 1955 to have nine straight games with a run batted in . His trip around the bases wasn’t the smoothest of his career, however.
” His nine consecutive games with an RBI ties the Dodgers franchise record with Campanella, Augie Galan and Eddie Brown, who also reached the mark in 1944 and 1924 respectively. Ohtani would later add an RBI single in the fourth inning, going 2-for-4 with two runs total in the game, as the Dodgers won their 50th of the season. “I don’t know what more we can really say about him,” Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman said of Ohtani, per the MLB.
