Ohtani had no hits and two strikeouts in five at-bats in an away game against the St. Louis Cardinals at Busch Stadium on the 17th (Korea time).

Ohtani, who had been sluggish in four consecutive away games against the Milwaukee Brewers by posting three hits from 17 times at bat until the previous day, failed to get a clue and ended up wasting all five of his at-bats. He had no hit in five times at bat for the second time in August, and his sixth hitless game. His batting average in 14 games in August was 0.164 (5 hits in 61 times at bat). However, the Dodgers won the game 7-6 thanks to the performance of its lower batting line.

Ohtani’s batting average fell to 0.291 (138 hits in 475 at-bats). With 37 homers, 86 RBIs, 91 runs, and 35 steals, Ohtani’s OPS also fell from 0.994 to 0.984. His batting average is on the verge of collapsing even at the 290 level, and his OPS fell below 0.990.

In his first at-bat in the top of the first inning, Ohtani was struck out swinging after a dogged game with St. Louis starter Miles Mikolas. After fouling out five consecutive balls from two to nine pitches in 2B2S, Ohtani picked out a curve that was dripping toward his body on the 10th pitch and swung his bat to a high backdoor slider that was 87.2 miles outside his 11th pitch. It was a meaningful at-bat in that he saw enough balls.

However, it was regrettable that he left the batter’s box on the second base and retired by a straight out to the second baseman in the second inning of the 2-0 lead. Mykolas hit an 89.3-mile slider at the first pitch, but his line drive that flew 106.8 miles was sucked into the glove of second baseman Brandon Donovan.

He was out after two outs in the top of the fifth inning when his team was losing 2-3. Mykolas was caught in the left field by Tommy Pham, a left fielder near the foul line when his 86.6 mile out change-up on the fourth pitch flew high into the left outfield. In the sixth inning when the bottom line exploded and turned the game around 7-4, he hit a 95.4 mile high sinker by Matthew Liberreto, a changed left-hander, but he grounded out to second.

In the top of the ninth inning with a 7-6 lead, he struck out swinging on an 85.3-mile outside slider in the seventh pitch against left-hander Joe Romero in his final at-bat.

However, the Dodgers allowed starter Justin Roblesky to walk to lead Nolan Arenado in the bottom of the second inning and Paul Goldschmidt hit a two-run shot to right-center to tie the game 2-2. Roblesky then allowed a 2-3 come-from-behind victory in the third inning by giving up a solo home run to left-handed Meisin Win after one out, and gave up a solo home run to lead Pedro Pazs in the fifth inning, widening the gap by two points.

However, the Dodgers’ lineup succeeded in turning the tide in the top of the sixth inning. Leading Mookie Betts gradually caught up with his solo home run to the left. He then beat Andrew Kitridge, the pitcher whose Rojas changed to a critical hit and Will Smith made an infield hit, with a critical hit to tie the game 4-4, before Kiermaier pulled a slider in the middle of Kitridge’s 87.3 miles to hit a three-run single to right-center to take a 7-4 lead.토토사이트

While St. Louis Cardinals scored two runs in the bottom of the sixth inning to keep the lead by one point, the Dodgers kept the win without allowing any additional run. Michael Kopech, who took the mound in the bottom of the ninth inning, allowed two strikeouts and no run in one inning, making his first save of the season and 10 saves of the season.

The Dodgers, which lost two consecutive games, widened the gap between the San Diego Padres and the Arizona Diamondbacks (69 wins and 54 losses) in the NL West with 72 wins and 51 losses.
