ドジャース 大谷おおたに翔平しょうへい 9きゅう試合しあい連続れんぞくヒットもチームの連勝れんしょう止とまる

Shohei Ohtani of the Dodgers in Major League Baseball extended his hitting streak to nine games with a hit against the Giants, increasing his consecutive games on base to 26.

The teams winning streak ended at four as they lost after a comeback by the opponent.

The Dodgers, who are at the top of the National League West, have reduced their magic number for clinching the division to 3 and faced the fourth-place Giants from the same division at their home stadium in Los Angeles on the 21st.

Ohtani, who hit home runs in two consecutive games and is now tied for the league lead in the home run race, started as the leadoff designated hitter. In his first at-bat in the first inning, he struck out swinging, and in his second at-bat in the third inning, he was out on a line drive to right field.

In his third at-bat in the sixth inning, Ohtani adjusted his bat to a low outside changeup and sent it to right field for a single, getting on base with a hit for the ninth consecutive game.

He has now extended his streak of consecutive games reaching base, which began on August 24th last month, to 26.

Dodgers starting pitcher Sheehan pitched well, throwing seven scoreless innings, and in the bottom of the seventh, the lineup scored the first run. However, in the eighth, the second pitcher, Treinen, gave up a bases-loaded walk and allowed the Giants to score three runs, resulting in a come-from-behind loss.

In the eighth inning, trailing by two runs with no outs and a runner on first, Ohtani came up for his fourth at-bat. A home run would have tied the game, but he struck out swinging.

Shohei Ohtani went 1-for-4 in this game with no home runs, bringing his batting average to .283.

Phillies player Schwarber also didnt hit a home run on this day, so in the National League home run race, two players are tied for the lead with 53 home runs.

The Dodgers lost 1-3 as it was, ending their winning streak at four.

The Padres, who are in second place in the division, won their game that day, so the gap narrowed to 3 games. The Dodgers’ magic number to clinch the division remains at 3, with 6 games left in the season.
