在加入洛杉磯道奇隊後，大谷翔平在韓國的熱身賽中敲出一支全壘打，但之後卻完全的熄火。打擊陷入低潮，直到開季後的第9場比賽中才敲出一支重要的全壘打，為球隊得到關鍵一分。在之前的比賽中，當他面對滿壘時，許多人都期待他能為球隊帶來安打或全壘打，但不幸地被對手三振出局，無緣成為英雄。今天，大谷在第7局的第4個打席中，面對舊金山巨人隊投手Taylor Rogers，數據顯示大谷的打擊率對右側逼角球的情況表現不佳。在投球數3好球1壞球的絕對落後情況下，Taylor在大谷之後要面對著過去的MVP Freddie Freeman。只能被迫投出落在邊角外側的好球，但大谷明顯已經準備好，揮出一棒強勁的打擊，將球擊向右外野看台。

然而，在爆發翻譯參與簽賭醜聞後，大谷回到美國後的三振率急劇上升，突破到3成。他表示雖然仍然能夠清楚地看到球進壘的方向，但揮棒的時機掌握得不好。受到多年好友的背叛，甚至被外界質疑是否也參與簽賭，這些都多少影響大谷的心情。然而，在今天的比賽中，他終於敲出作為道奇隊球員的第一支全壘打。接下來，他將持續調整節奏，希望逐漸恢復到MVP的水準。

After joining the Los Angeles Dodgers, Shohei Ohtani hit a home run in a exhibition game in Korea, but then his performance took a nosedive. His batting slumped until he finally hit a crucial home run in the ninth game of the season, scoring a vital run for the team. In a previous game, when facing bases loaded situations, many expected him to bring in hit or home run for the team, but unfortunately, he was struck out by the opponent, missing the chance to become a hero. Today, in the fourth at-bat of the seventh inning, facing San Francisco Giants pitcher Taylor Rogers, Ohtani's batting average against left-handers in pressure situations was not good. In an absolute count of three balls and one strike, Taylor, after Ohtani, would have to face the former MVP Freddie Freeman. Forced to throw a strike on the outer edge, Taylor did just that, but Ohtani was ready, swinging fiercely and sending the ball towards the right outfield stands.

However, after the interpreter betting scandal broke out, Ohtani's strikeout rate skyrocketed upon his return to the United States, surpassing 30%. He mentioned that although he could still clearly see the direction of the pitches, his timing for swinging was off. Betrayed by longtime friends and even questioned by the public about his involvement in gambling, these factors somewhat affected Ohtani's morale. Nevertheless, in today's game, he finally hit his first home run as a Dodger player. Moving forward, he will continue to adjust his rhythm, hoping to gradually return to the level of an MVP.
