Shohei Ohtani pitched three scoreless innings with four strikeouts in his first time pitching against the Giants as part of the rivalry. Including his time with the Los Angeles Angels, Ohtani has allowed one run in 15 career innings (0.60 ERA) against San Francisco.

For the first time this season, Shohei Ohtani pitched into the third inning, and continued to show why he's still a two-way unicorn.

"You could see it … that different demeanor that he carries on days that he pitches," Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said.

In his longest outing on the mound since returning from injury, ace Shohei Ohtani shut down the San Francisco Giants on Saturday, allowing just one hit and recording four strikeouts across three innings.

Even the Los Angeles Dodgers are having trouble keeping up with the two-way superstar's continuous improvement.

It marked the 65th home run into the water by an opponent in Oracle Park’s 25-year history and 171st in all — and 35 of those belong to home run king Barry Bonds.
