Dodgers Highlights: Shohei Ohtani Breaks Statcast Record & Tyler Glasnow Strikeouts Vs. Blue Jays

The Los Angeles Dodgers clinched a series victory and extended their winning streak to six games by defeating the Toronto Blue Jays, 4-2. Now the Dodgers are in position to complete a second consecutive series sweep on their road trip.

Mookie Betts led all players with three hits, and one of them was a triple to open the game. Betts then scored on Freddie Freeman’s sacrifice fly.

The Dodgers’ lead remained 1-0 until Chris Taylor hit an RBI single in the second inning. The Dodgers found more success against Yusei Kikuchi as Shohei Ohtani pulled an RBI base hit into right field before the Blue Jays starter could get through the inning.

Betts drove in the Dodgers’ final run of the day with an RBI single in the fourth inning.


Tyler Glasnow made the early run support hold up as he pitched into the seventh inning. Glasnow came out of the start after giving up an RBI double with no outs in the seventh, leaving both because of pitch counts and due to cramping that started in his right calf before impacting his throwing hand.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts and Glasnow said there is not any concern over the issue, which was believed to have been a result of some dehydration in a humid atmosphere.

Shohei Ohtani breaks Dodgers Statcast record

Ohtani’s RBI single had a 119.2 mph exit velocity, which set a Dodgers record for hardest-hit ball in the Stacast Era (since 2015). Ohtani previously broke the Dodgers record during the current road trip when he hit a majestic home run against the Washington Nationals that was 118.7 mph off the bat.

Before Ohtani, the previous hardest-hit home run by a Dodgers player in the Statcast Era belonged to Corey Seager, with a 115.3 mph exit velocity on Sept. 30, 2021.

The hardest-hit ball by a Dodgers player in any capacity was Yasiel Puig’s ground ball out on April 4, 2017, that was 116 mph.
