The Japanese slugger has been a sweet-swinging Hollywood blockbuster so far. The Dodgers are on top of the NL West with a 50-31 record, and Ohtani has played a major role in their strong start. The two-time AL MVP is batting a career-high .320 with 24 homers, 60 RBIs and a 1.032 OPS in 78 games. "It's really about getting to know the guys," Ohtani said Tuesday night through an interpreter. "You know I had my first impression, but really getting to know who the people are and the organization. "As I stated before, I decided to sign with this team and wanted to do the best that I can to fit in. So I think overall, looking back, it's been a really good first half." Ohtani, who turns 30 on July 5, agreed to a record-shattering $700 million, 10-year contract in December. The two-way sensation isn't pitching this year while he recovers from elbow surgery, and it looks as if putting more of his focus on hitting is helping him at the plate. "The reality is the workload has been a lot less," Ohtani said. "So I can't deny that. But at the same time, as a hitter, I've been getting better and overall I think I've been growing as a hitter, too." Ohtani hit a leadoff homer during Tuesday night's 4-3 victory over the Chicago White Sox, extending his RBI streak to a career-high nine consecutive games -- matching a franchise record. He walked and scored in the third inning, and then hit a tiebreaking RBI single in the fourth. Ohtani moved into the leadoff spot after Mookie Betts was sidelined by a broken left hand. He is batting .419 (13-for-31) with five homers and 14 RBIs in eight games since Betts got hurt. "I don't know what more we can really say about him," Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman said. "I think we've said everything we can since he entered this league, about what an amazing player he is. But when you come over here, you just never know how first year's going to go on any team. "Sometimes you just got to step back and just appreciate a player like this." Ohtani drove a hanging curveball from Chris Flexen into the visitor's bullpen in right-center for his NL-best 24th homer. White Sox right fielder Tommy Pham tried to make a leaping grab on the play, but was unable to bring it in. Ohtani got so caught up in tracking the ball that he carried his bat as he jogged up the line. After discarding his lumber, he went back to touch first base because he was concerned that he missed the bag the first time around. "Just wasn't quite sure that I stepped on the bag," he said. It was Ohtani's second leadoff homer of the season and No. 8 for his career. He is the first player to drive in at least one run in nine consecutive games for the Dodgers since Hall of Fame catcher Roy Campanella in 1955. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Ohtani is being more selective at the plate, and it's paying off. "When you do that," Roberts said, "you earn pitches in the strike zone, and when he does that, a lot of special things happen." 3bcfc7d85010d68f0508e5d1f0ec07ac Modern House Design Design Living Why 1970s Interior Design Is Trending Again 1 Image1 L Intro 1672455851 936c5c7da106494d7bb96f0a28026c1e B3300f65ea79c0fe2669d8ff5cf9a2bf B547351c5ef39af4dba73949ffd1e840 9fe5cf74dcc76f00e063218e04ed568a E38bb2aadd810d726c460ffe9a989a73 3aee4433e5c4b52b0e193b0e9fa99829 L 2 950x634.0 699a84e2edf7ae03bb7ff3abc0cf0c2d 6236ba6df65b64d85c4d4813954f7a1c 7ee73c5c702a04296672cf5139ef4b9f B5be6104fbb934460de1db9ce2c9f663 C92fc5413ce7937a528a796ed5c360aa Change Of Materials 1672455851 Ae9dfc623d4f1f73e14dda174b4fe580 Ec9622d0c42d20f9f092ffacfcfceef0 48cce59d07367464c981e7c5845cde1a 5c2c4926cda87980446f08c071026c89 Repurposing The Old 1672455851 468876255659f486178b205e5b191646 9c5f8f5ff98f8f57e5f9f8c0d62d32c4 D5f8929c5848ebb1123341ad69557eda 498dea1a1d849f7856c03440d370fc09 B03f1c9ba3bd73301199881edcc728b8 CPmM5 1459882382 788 Blog 70sinteriors Main 95b75a48a5d2845291661fb2dec35f11 E604700241c25317f4d385ad95376d16 PV65ehvBKbybfibDRSMdbV 415 80
