Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani etched his name in Major League Baseball history on Thursday, becoming the first member of the 50-50 club on Thursday against the Miami Marlins. A 50-50 season includes 50+ home runs and 50+ stolen bases in a season. The Japanese two-way sensation was 6-for-6 with 10 RBIs in the game, giving the Dodgers a 14-3 lead with his historic home run. Incredibly, he hit a home run on his next at-bat in the 9th inning, giving him three runs on the game. The Japanese superstar entered the record books in unlikely fashion, hitting two doubles, a single, three home runs and stealing a base – one of the most effective offensive performances best of any player’s season.

Ohtani opened his day with a double in the first inning, along with his 50th stolen base of the season. After a single later, Ohtani stole his 51st base. He hit a double the next time, but was thrown out at third when he tried to extend it to a triple. He hit his 49th home run in the sixth inning off Marlins reserve pitcher George Soriano, sending the two-run shot toward the second deck of right-center field at LoanDepot Park to come close to 50/50 club. One inning later, Ohtani hit a three-run homer off relief pitcher Mike Baumann, his historic 50th homer of the season. Ohtani stood at the plate for a moment as he watched the ball fly into the stands before advancing to first base, screaming with excitement. After running around the bases and being greeted by his Dodgers teammates, Ohtani headed out of the rest area for a rare walk-off pitch.
