加州洛杉磯市議會召開會議，正式將每年的5月17日訂為大谷翔平日。而在道奇隊主場對上紅人的系列賽第二場，大谷在第三局轟出本季的第13支全壘打，並帶有2分打點，再次暫居大聯盟全壘打王。

近期狀況火熱的大谷，過去15場出賽中，打出6發全壘打，拿到14個打點。今日紅人的先發投手Frankie Montas，過去均無法有效壓制大谷，被打擊率高達4成17，打出4支全壘打。加上今天的全壘打，大谷已經對Montas打出5轟。最終道奇以7比3擊敗紅人，中止2連敗，累積勝場已經達到30場，位居國聯西區第一。

The Los Angeles City Council held a meeting and officially designated May 17th of each year as Shohei Ohtani Day. In the second game of the series against the Reds at Dodger Stadium, Ohtani hit his 13th home run of the season in the third inning, driving in two runs and once again taking the lead as the MLB home run king.

Recently, Ohtani has been in excellent form. Over the past 15 games, he has hit 6 home runs and collected 14 RBIs. Today, the Reds' starting pitcher, Frankie Montas, who has historically struggled to contain Ohtani, had a average ERA against him of 4.17 with 4 home runs. With today's home run, Ohtani has now hit 5 home runs off Montas. The Dodgers ultimately defeated the Reds 7-3, ending their two-game losing streak and bringing their total wins to 30, stays first in the NL West.
