Shohei Ohtani eclipsed 50 stolen bases on Thursday, and can reasonably be expected to record MLB's first 50-50 season at Dodger Stadium. .
The Los Angeles Dodgers are set to welcome the Colorado Rockies and San Diego Padres to Dodger Stadium for six games beginning Friday, their final homestand of the 2024 regular season.The stakes of the games themselves aren't minimal. The Dodgers are zeroing in on a National League West title, their 12th in the last 13 seasons. The Padres are their nearest pursuer in the division and a potential postseason opponent.
In the sixth inning, Ohtani tied Shawn Green's all-time franchise record of 49 home runs, launching a fly ball deep into the right-field bleacher seats at loanDepot Park.According to Jeff Eisenberg of Yahoo! Sports, Ohtani's 50th home run ball has the potential to make its owner a wealthy man or woman. Brahm Wachter, head of modern collectibles at Sotheby's, told Eisenberg the ball 'could fetch upwards of $200,000' at auction.
