On the 10th (11th Japan time), Dodgers pitcher Shohei Ohtani (30) started as leadoff hitter and designated hitter in the away game against the Phillies. Following his first at-bat in which he hit a single to right field, he hit a timely single to center field in his third at-bat, marking his first multi-hit game in three games. In the first inning, he also recorded the longest streak of four consecutive stolen bases by a Japanese player, tying Ichiro and Matsui Kazuo, but the team lost to the Phillies, who are leading the National League East Division, and the series ended in a losing streak, marking their third three-game losing streak this season.
