Dodgers' Shohei Ohtani Wastes No Time Hitting Home Run No. 300

On Monday night, Ohtani hit the 299th home run of his already historic career.

On Tuesday night, he led the game off with a home run, marking the 300th of his career. Only 169 other players in MLB history have reached that number. Ohtani is No. 170.

After Monday's game, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said he was surprised with how quickly Ohtani has reached this number.

“We’re always talking about the 500 club," Roberts said. "So for him to get to 300 given some of the time that he’s missed with the surgeries, it’s been pretty dang quick for me.”

Ohtani is the fifth-fastest player in MLB history to reach the milestone, doing it in just 1,102 games.

It took him just one at-bat after Roberts' comments to reach the milestone.
