Shohei Ohtani is single-handedly carrying the Dodgers against the Tigers. He had the game-winning hit Friday, an early go-ahead run in the first inning Saturday, and a go-ahead home run in the fifth inning Saturday.
The go-ahead homer was his 29th of the year and the 200th of his career. It was also his 56th extra-base hit before the All-Star break, which is the most ever by a Dodgers player.
Kyle Madson neither likes writing about himself nor writing in the third person. Nevertheless, he persists. 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.
