Ohtani joins 30-30 club for 1st time in career
Shohei Ohtani added yet another accomplishment to his resume on Saturday, as the Los Angeles Dodgers superstar joined the 30-homer, 30-steal club for the first time in his career.
Ohtani clinched his 30-30 season with a stolen base - his second of the game - in the ninth inning against the Oakland Athletics.

It's the fourth 30-30 season in Dodgers history after Raul Mondesi in 1997 and 1999, and Matt Kemp in 2011. He reached the milestone in his 108th game of the season, which is tied for the third-fewest games to reach 30-30 in MLB history, per Sportsnet Stats.
Ohtani stole three bases on Saturday and now has 31 on the season to go along with his National League-leading 33 home runs.
