Dodgers' Shohei Ohtani becomes first in MLB history with 50 home runs, 50 steals in single season

Shohei Ohtani's first season in a Los Angeles Dodgers uniform is a memorable one as he made MLB history by becoming the first player to ever hit 50 home runs and steal 50 bases in a single season.

Ohtani entered Thursday against the Miami Marlins with 10 games to reach the never-before-touched milestone, but he decided to get it all out of the way as he stole his 50th and 51st bases.

Then Ohtani hit his 49th and 50th home runs in the same game, breaking Shawn Green’s 2001 season record for the most in a single season by a Dodger in the process.

And Ohtani's outstanding day at the dish wasn't over, as he hit yet another home run in this game to make it 51 on the season in the top of the ninth inning during the Dodgers' 20-4 onslaught of the Marlins. 

Ohtani finished his day a perfect 6-for-6 at the dish with 10 RBI, five extra-base hits and four runs scored. That's unprecedented production for the man who now appears destined to win the National League MVP this year. 

Ohtani came into this game needing just one stolen base to reach the half-century mark, and he didn’t wait time when he got on base in the top of the first inning. As he was standing on second base, he got a good jump to third, but it appeared the throw beat him.
