Shohei Ohtani gets first victory with Dodgers, striking out season-high 9 against Reds
The Dodgers won their fourth straight and extended their NL West lead to two games over San Diego, which lost 4-3 at Seattle.
Ohtani (1-1) bounced back against the Reds in his 11th start of the season and first in which he went the minimum five innings to qualify for a win. The victory was his first since Aug. 9, 2023, with the Angels against San Francisco.
The two-way star allowed one run and two hits while walking two on a season-high 87 pitches, 53 for strikes, while retiring his final eight batters on his bobblehead night. At the plate, he was 1 for 5 with a run.
The Reds led 1-0 on Noelvi Marte's 410-foot homer on the first pitch by Ohtani in the third. It was the third homer Ohtani has allowed this season.
The Dodgers scored four runs to take a 4-1 lead in the fourth. Kiké Hernández, starting in place of injured Freddie Freeman, had a two-run single up the middle. It was the third straight single allowed by Nick Lodolo (8-7), who retired the first nine batters he faced.
Lodolo intentionally walked Miguel Rojas, and Dalton Rushing followed with a two-run single. Michael Conforto added a solo homer in the eighth.
