Ohtani went 3-for-5 with two home runs and three RBI in Wednesday's 7-6 loss to the Cubs.
In a battle between NL MVP contenders, Ohtani and Pete Crow-Armstrong each left the yard twice, but it was latter who came out on top. Ohtani remains limited to DH duties due to knee and bicep issues, but they are hardly slowing him down at the plate. He's hit safely in nine straight games, batting .457 (16-for-35) during that blistering stretch with four of his 26 homers on the year.
