Shohei Ohtani Makes Dodgers History in Win Against Padres originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Los Angeles Dodgers two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani continues to rewrite the record books.
With 73 runs in the Dodgers' first 72 games of the season, Ohtani is on pace to set the modern NL record for runs in a season, with 164. It's a mark that only two players have achieved since 1900. Both played in the American League, and both are Hall of Famers: Babe Ruth in 1921 (177) and Lou Gehrig in 1936 (167).
