Shohei Ohtani's first walk

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Shohei Ohtani’s first walk-off hit for the Los Angeles Dodgers was also his first game-ending hit in the majors in nearly four years.

His still-new teammates and fans who celebrated with him Sunday at Chavez Ravine expect to see many more feats from a superstar who’s somehow getting even better in Dodger Blue.

Ohtani pulled a low fastball to right with two outs in the 10th inning, scoring Jason Heyward and ending the Dodgers’ 3-2 victory over Cincinnati. Two teammates doused Ohtani with water while a crowd of 52,656 roared for the latest feat by the $700 million slugger.

“We always say he’s the best player in the world, and you see it,” Dodgers outfielder Andy Pages said.

The clutch hit off Alexis Díaz capped an extraordinarily eventful week for Ohtani, who is thriving on the field for Los Angeles amid the potential off-field distraction of his former interpreter being charged with bank and tax fraud after allegedly stealing millions from Ohtani to fund his gambling habit.
