The japanese player from the Los Angeles Dodgers, Shohei Ohtani, had his first walk-off as a member of the Los Angeles Dodgers when the team faced the Cincinatti Reds on Sunday’s afternoon.
In the last game of the series, Ohtani found runners in first and second base with two outs and the score tied. He answered with a single hit that brought the winning run to the plate.
Shohei Ohtani hits his first walk-off as a Dodger! We've never seen a player win the MVP as a DH only, but we've also never seen a player like Shohei Ohtani. Moments like this will only help Ohtani make history.

Ohtani didn’t have mercy to that 94 mph pitch that Alexis Diaz threw to him. The ball was hitted by Shohei Ohtani and reached a speed of 100 mph in direction to the right field where Jake Fraley couldn’t do much. His last walk-off hit was in 2020 when he was a member of the Los Angeles Angels and was also a single.
