Shohei Ohtani simply cannot be stopped. After having his seven-game hitting streak snapped in Monday's 3-0 Dodgers win, he led off Tuesday's contest with his National League-best 24th home run of the season. 

Ohtani has now driven in at least one run in nine consecutive games, and he has nine home runs in Los Angeles' last 14 games. At the time of his home run he was one behind Orioles shortstop Gunnar Henderson for second in Major League Baseball in home runs, and four off the pace of MLB leader Aaron Judge.

While Kyle has spent most of his writing career covering the NFL’s Tennessee Titans and San Francisco 49ers, he’s never lost the love of baseball that has resided in the deepest recesses of his soul since he began playing T-ball at 4 years old (no matter how hard John Fisher has tried). Aside from writing, Kyle also hosts a radio show, the Insiders, with James Ham on ESPN 1320 in Sacramento. When he’s not being a sports dork, Kyle loves being a normal dork and traveling, visiting museums, diving further into K-Pop fandom (#SKZ) and hanging out with his wife and cats.
