Shohei Ohtani has made history again — this time in grand fashion. The Dodgers superstar hit a walk-off grand slam against the Rays on Friday night for his 40th home run, becoming the fastest player to achieve the feat in MLB history. He is the first 40/40 player in Dodgers history and just the sixth MLB player ever to hit the mark. Ohtani reached 40/40 in 129 games played, blowing away the previously fastest mark of 147 games by Washington Nationals' Alfonso Soriano in 2006.
919; 42 HR, 46 SB The all-time stolen base leader in 40/40 seasons, Rodríguez topped 40 steals for the first and only time in his career when he swiped 46 bags to go along with swatting 42 big flies. Those numbers helped A-Rod earn MVP votes for the second time in his career but he somehow finished just ninth in the voting despite also leading the AL in hits for the season as well as being top-five in RBI , total bases , runs scored and extra-base hits .
