Shohei Ohtani is putting together an elite season at the plate and on the mound 👀 He takes the bump for the @Dodgers to Via @MLB on X

What happened: Shohei Ohtani is set to make his 11th start of the 2026 season for the Los Angeles Dodgers tonight in Pittsburgh. Ohtani enters the matchup following a historic opening stretch where he has maintained an elite 0.74 ERA through 61.0 innings.

Why it matters: Ohtani’s 0.74 ERA through his first 10 starts represents one of the most dominant statistical runs in modern baseball history, trailing only a handful of legends since 1920. His performance on the mound is supported by a Dodgers offense that leads the NL West and has outscored opponents 27-15 over their last three games.

By the numbers: ERA: 0.74 (10 starts); WHIP: 0.79; Innings: 61.0; Batting: .301 AVG, 11 HR; Dodgers: 43-24 record.

What to watch: The Dodgers look to secure a series victory in Pittsburgh before returning home to host the Chicago White Sox this weekend.
