""I've been able to get on base, so that's a good thing," Ohtani said through interpreter Will Ireton after Tuesday's game. "But on pitches that I should be making impact, I'm not able to do that to the extent that I should be able to. That's the part I'm not quite happy about.""
"Ohtani went into the series finale against the Guardians just 3-for-15 this season. Taking on-field batting practice did little to change that trajectory as Ohtani went 0-for-3 with one walk and two strikeouts in the Dodgers' 4-1 loss."
"The walk nevertheless extended Ohtani's on-base streak to an MLB-best 37 games. The stretch dates back to the 2025 season and is the longest on-base streak of Ohtani's career."
Shohei Ohtani balances a demanding schedule as a two-way player, occasionally adjusting his routine. Before a game against the Cleveland Guardians, he participated in on-field batting practice, a departure from his usual indoor sessions. Despite his efforts, Ohtani struggled, going 0-for-3 with two strikeouts in the game. However, he did extend his on-base streak to 37 games, the longest of his career and tied for ninth-longest in Los Angeles franchise history.
