Ohtani Hits 200th Homer in Dodgers' 11-9 Loss

Shohei Ohtani of the Los Angeles Dodgers hit his 200th career home run in a game against the Detroit Tigers, making him the first Japanese-born player to reach this milestone. Despite Ohtani's individual success, including a triple and leading the National League in several categories, the Dodgers lost the game 11-9 in extra innings. The Tigers mounted a dramatic comeback, scoring five runs in the ninth inning and winning on a two-run homer by Gio Urshela in the 10th inning. Ohtani's achievements continue to amaze, even as he recovers from Tommy John surgery and focuses solely on batting this season. His performance has reignited discussions about him potentially winning a third MVP award. The game highlighted both Ohtani's individual brilliance and the Dodgers' struggles to close out games.
