During the second pitch of the Los Angeles Dodgers' matchup against the Chicago Cubs on Tuesday, Shohei Ohtani was a part of something that has only happened 30

Led by the reigning NL MVP Shohei Ohtani, the Los Angeles Dodgers are off to a solid start in 2025, currently sitting in second place in the NL West with an 18-10 record and a plus 16 run differential. On Sunday, they faced off against the Pittsburgh Pirates in a rubber match, ultimately winning the game 9-2 and taking the series with two wins.

There aren't many awards Shohei Ohtani is qualified for that he doesn't wind up winning. The Los Angeles Dodgers superstar won the Most Valuable Player Award for the third time in his career and the first time in the National League in 2024.
