Shohei Ohtani homered twice Monday night as the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Colorado Rockies 11-5 at Coors Field. The two homers were Ohtani's 28th and 29th of the season, per Yahoo Sports. One outlet reported the homers totaled 878 feet of distance. Deadspin reported that Ohtani finished with four hits in the game, while Max Muncy also went deep and singled.
Blake Snell was effective on the mound for Los Angeles, striking out five over six innings while giving up two hits, according to multiple outlets. The offensive outburst came as the Dodgers have been struggling, with ESPN noting the performance was encouraging after a recent slump.
Ahead of a possible bullpen session Tuesday, per MLB.com, ESPN reported that Ohtani's knee status would be monitored following his most recent bullpen work.
