LOS ANGELES — Shohei Ohtani hit a two-out grand slam in the ninth inning for his 40th home run after earlier stealing his 40th base, lifting the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 7-3 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays. Ohtani became the fastest player in major league history and sixth ever to hit 40 homers and steal 40 bases in a season. He's also the first Dodger to do so. He broke the record held by Alfonso Soriano, who reached the mark in Game 148 for the Washington Nationals in 2006. Ohtani did it in the Dodgers' 129th game.
