Ohtani went 2-for-3 with a double, two RBI, a stolen base and a run scored in Wednesday's win over the Padres while also drawing a walk.
Ohtani walked in his first trip to the plate and advanced to second on a wild pitch from Dylan Cease before then scoring the Dodgers' first run on a Teoscar Hernandez single. The superstar slugger continued to come through in the clutch throughout the contest, giving Los Angeles the lead with an RBI double in the fourth, and again in the sixth with an RBI single while also going on to swipe his 56th bag of the campaign. Ohtani has now hit safely in eight straight games, batting .558 (19-for-34) over that stretch with six homers, 17 RBI, 12 runs and eight stolen bases. He's also registered multiple hits in four of his last six contests.
