Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani launched 3 home runs in a single game against the Padres, raising his season total to 12 through 15 games and putting him on pace for a historic 60+ home run season.
Ohtani's April Stats
- Home runs: 12 (MLB leader)
- Batting average: .385
- OPS: 1.325
- Projected season pace: 62 home runs
Historic Context
Only three players have hit 60+ home runs in a season: Barry Bonds (73), Mark McGwire (70), and Sammy Sosa (66). If Ohtani maintains this pace, he would join the most exclusive club in baseball history — and do it as a two-way player still pitching every fifth day.
