Shohei Ohtani became the first member of baseball’s 50-homer, 50-steal club Thursday against the Miami Marlins.
The home runs — in the sixth and seventh innings against George Soriano and Mike Baumann — set a franchise record in the process. Shawn Green hit 49 home runs in 2001, a franchise record that had stood until Thursday.
Ohtani reached the 50-steal milestone in the first inning. He stole his second base of the game, and his 51st of the season, in the second inning.
Green previously spoke with JP Hoornstra of Dodgers Nation about his record potentially falling.
