LOS ANGELES (AP) — Dave Roberts recently joked that Shohei Ohtani should gift Roberts a Porsche when Ohtani breaks his Dodgers’ record for most home runs by a Japanese-born player. Ohtani obliged, just maybe not in the way Roberts imagined. Before Friday’s game against the Atlanta Braves, the Dodgers’ slugger gifted Roberts a purple toy

LOS ANGELES -- When the Dodgers signed Shohei Ohtani this winter, they could just dream of the monstrous homers and the big moments he would produce at Dodger Stadium over the course of the next decade. That’s why they believed he was worth the historic $700 million deal. On Sunday,
Shohei Ohtani crushes a solo home run, passing manager Dave Roberts for the
The boos rained down before Shohei Ohtani’s name even was announced. They only got louder as he trotted around the bases.

Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani holds the Major League Baseball record for the most home runs hit by a Japanese-born player. He does not, however, hold that record on his own team. That one still belongs to manager Dave Roberts — at least for the time being. During the third inning of the Dodgers' 10-0 win over the New York Mets on Sunday, Ohtani blasted a shot off pitcher Adrian Houser over the right-field fence for a two-run home run. It was the 176th home run of Ohtani's MLB career and represented...

Shohei Ohtani responded to boos from the Toronto crowd by hitting his seventh home run, Max Muncy and Will Smith also went deep and the Los Angeles Dodgers extended their winning streak to five games with a 12-2 rout of the Blue Jays on Friday night.
