LOS ANGELES (AP) — Shohei Ohtani is baseball’s fastest 40-40 man. The Japanese superstar blasted a two-out grand slam in the ninth inning for his 40th homer after earlier stealing his 40th base, lifting the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 7-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday night. Ohtani achieved the feat in his 126th game and the team’s 129th, the quickest in major league history and sixth ever to reach 40 homers and 40 stolen bases in a season. He’s also the first Dodgers player to do so. “It’s really more about the winning,” Ohtani said through an interpreter. “Obviously the record is part of the process but I think the most important thing is about winning the game.”

The Yankees have responded decisively to a three-game losing streak, rolling off a quick three-game winning streak to offset any damage done last week. Aaron Judge has keyed the quality play, of course, but so has stellar starting pitching. That kind of all-around performance is reminiscent of the Yankees’ incredible first couple months of 2024, and it’ll hopefully carry through to the end of the year.
