Shohei Ohtani became the first major league player to exceed 50 home runs and 50 stolen bases in a season during the most spectacular game of a history-making career for the Dodgers star, going deep three times and swiping two bags on Thursday against the Marlins in Miami.

Ohtani hit is 49th homer in the sixth inning, his 50th in the seventh and his 51st in the ninth. He finished 6 for 6 with 10 RBIs while becoming the first big league player to hit three homers and steal two bases in a game.

The 30-year-old Japanese superstar reached the second deck in right-center on two of his three homers at LoanDepot Park. In the sixth inning, he launched a 1-1 slider from George Soriano 438 feet for his 49th.

Ohtani hit his 50th homer in the seventh inning, an opposite-field, two-run shot to left against Marlins reliever Mike Baumann. Then, in the ninth, his 51st traveled 440 feet to right-center, a three-run shot against Marlins second baseman Vidal Brujan, who came in to pitch with the game out of hand.

Ohtani took care of the stolen bases earlier in the game, swiping his 50th in the first and his 51st in the second.

The Japanese superstar led off the game with double against Edward Cabrera and swiped third on the front end of a double steal with Freddie Freeman.

Ohtani has been successful on his last 28 stolen base attempts.

He reached the 50-50 milestone in his 150th game. Ohtani was already the sixth player in major league history and the fastest ever to reach 40 home runs and 40 stolen bases in a season, needing just 126 games.

Golf: The PGA of America confirmed that golfers who play in the LIV Golf League will be eligible for the Ryder Cup and PGA Championship going forward. In a statement, the PGA of America said the decision to add LIV to its list of approved tours had been made to ensure that the “US Ryder Cup team continue to have access to the best American players.” LIV players will be offered membership into the PGA of America, the same membership granted to PGA Tour players, those on the European tour and nine other circuits around the world. The announcement is consistent with what the PGA of America has done over the last two years, including in 2023 when LIV Golf’s Brooks Koepka won the PGA Championship for the third time and was then picked for the U.S. Ryder Cup team in Rome. LIV American golfers, including Koepka and reigning U.S. Open champion Bryson DeChambeau, will be permitted to feature in next year’s Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black in New York, assuming they qualify or are picked by captain Keegan Bradley. Bradley had previously indicated a willingness to welcome LIV players onto the team. The European Ryder Cup team has a pathway in place for those with LIV Golf to be eligible for the biennial match-play event, with the main criteria being they must play at least four events on the Europe-based DP World Tour per year.
