Ohtani, who walked to the plate in the top of the first inning to a standing ovation from home fans and teammates today, removed his helmet in celebration and struck out on a wild pitch.

In the seventh inning, Ohtani reached the “52-52” mark when he stole second base after singling and then stole third. In the ensuing at-bat, he came home on Teoscar Hernandez's RBI single, and the Dodgers went on to win 6-4.

Ohtani's record-breaking pace has garnered the attention of Major League Baseball and the rest of the world.
