Shohei Ohtani Extends League-Leading Streaks in 2026 Pitching Debut

โ€ขYahoo Sports

Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani simultaneously holds league-leading streaks at the plate and on the mound.

Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani is renowned for his game-changing ability on the mound at the plate. Being able to be effective in both phases of the game is one thing though. Being perhaps the most dominant offensive player and the most dominant pitcher at the same time is another thing entirely.

Yet thatโ€™s the case Ohtani is making with two league-leading streaks, as reported by Thomas Harrigan of MLB. com . With six scoreless innings on the mound Tuesday night, Ohtani reached 22.

2 innings pitched without allowing a run, the longest such active streak in Major League Baseball. At the plate, he also reached base three times, twice on walks and once on a single. That makes 36 straight games reaching base safely.

Again, thatโ€™s the longest active streak in the majors. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Dodgers Nation (@dodgersnation) How Did Shohei Ohtani Do on Tuesday? Streaks aside, Ohtani performed admirably Tuesday night.
