It did not take long for Shohei Ohtani to greet the fans in Boston on Saturday. In fact, it was three pitchers until the game, and he took Garrett Crochet deep to put the Los Angeles Dodgers up 1-0 on the Boston Red Sox.

Shohei Ohtani homered for the fifth consecutive game on Wednesday, tying a Los Angeles Dodgers franchise record.

Shohei Ohtani isn't leading MLB in home runs at the All-Star break -- Who does, you ask? That would be Cal Raleigh, who is in the field -- but he is third in the majors at 32 homers. So: why isn't he in the 2025 Home Run Derby, set to start on Monday night at Truist Field in Atlanta?

LOS ANGELES — Shohei Ohtani gave up his first home run of the season when Minnesota's Byron Buxton took him deep. He promptly answered with a two-run shot of his own.

Shohei Ohtani started his sixth game of the season on Monday night, striking out three batters in three innings pitched. Ohtani surrendered a season-high four hits and allowed his first earned run since his first start back in the middle of June as he allowed a lead-off home run to Byron Buxton.

Shohei Ohtani has officially caught fire. On Wednesday night, he crushed a home run for the fifth game in a row, tying a franchise record for the Los Angeles Dodgers.
