Dodgers' Shohei Ohtani becomes first MLB hitter to reach 20 home runs in 2025, on pace for nearly 60

Los Angeles Dodgers superstar DH and starting-pitcher-in-waiting Shohei Ohtani on Tuesday became the first slugger in Major League Baseball to reach 20 home runs in 2025.

Here's a look at No. 20, which came off Tanner Bibee of the Cleveland Guardians:

Ohtani is just unstoppable, I don't even know why opposing teams pitch to him.

1. They don't want to pitch to him, but they also don't want to put him on base. He's such a good base stealer

What a ball player!

2. I see your point,

either pitch to him and risk a home run or put him on base and risk a steal and a run, 6 of 1, half a dozen of the other.

3. Yep, he's a total package. Just reading about him his nickname is Showtime. I love it.

4. It's gonna come down to Judge and Ohtani as league MVPs again

Judge is currently batting .395 with an astounding and catchy 1.234 OPS!

Sounds like Ohtani will not take the mound until at least after the all-star break.

5. How is he on hits?

Single-runs home runs before the 9'th are overrated IMO. Hits are what wins a game. The more, the better!

6. We are witnessing Ruthian play...

I saw him live a week ago. A monster. Kaiju
