Shohei Ohtani does it all in otherworldly night to send Dodgers back to World Series

Shohei Ohtani delivered a historic night that left fans stunned and the Milwaukee Brewers stunned. The Los Angeles Dodgers won Game 4 of the National League Championship Series 5‑1 and closed out the series in a 4‑game sweep to keep their bid for back‑to‑back World Series titles alive.

Ohtani, the Dodgers’ rare two‑way star, powered the offense with three homers—one off the first‑inning mound, a 469‑foot blast in the fourth, and a left‑center drive in the seventh. He also went six scoreless innings on the mound, striking out ten batters and walking only three over 100 pitches. With his combination of hitting and pitching, Ohtani became the first player in MLB history to hit three home runs and strike out ten in the same postseason game.

The Dodgers’ offense was comfortable from the start. Ohtani’s first‑inning homer gave them a 1‑0 lead, and the power surge continued as Mookie Betts and Will Smith added singles. Teoscar Hernández’s ground‑out extended the tally to 3‑0, and the run column posted fifteen runs to Milwaukee’s four. The Brewers faltered early, with Jose Quintana giving up three earned runs in just two innings.

In pitching, the Dodgers kept the Brewers’s offense in check. Besides Ohtani’s six‑scoreless days, the staff was on fire—Blake Snell’s shutout in Game 1 and big outings from Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Tyler Glasnow, and Roki Sasaki helped the club allow only four runs in four games.

With the sweep in hand, the Dodgers are 9‑1 in the postseason and one win away from becoming the first team since the 2000 New York Yankees to win consecutive World Series titles. They will face the Seattle Mariners or Toronto Blue Jays in the World Series, which will start either at Dodger Stadium or in Toronto depending on the winner of the American League series.

Ohtani’s performance underscores why he is everyone’s favorite two‑way player. His three‑homer night ties him with Chris Taylor as the only Dodgers to hit three homers in a postseason game—Taylor did it against the Braves in 2021. As the Dodgers lock up a berth in the World Series, the world watches to see whether Ohtani can keep the momentum going.
