Overview

  • Ohtani, who lined a third-inning RBI double off Michael Lorenzen on Sunday in Denver, moved his on-base streak to 51 games and into sole third for the Dodgers since 1900.
  • The streak has run every time he has been in the lineup since August 24, 2025, covering the end of last season and the start of this one.
  • He now trails Shawn Green’s 53-game run for second in franchise history, with Duke Snider’s club record at 58 set in 1954.
  • MLB.com places the 51-game run as the fourth-longest in the majors over the past 20 years, with Ted Williams’ 84 in 1949 standing as the overall record.
  • Before Saturday’s game at Coors Field, he met Momoyo Nakamoto Kelley, a 100-year-old Nagasaki bombing survivor, signing a ball and posing for a photo as she called him the pride of Japan.
