Los Angeles Dodgers Star Shohei Ohtani With Historic First Half Of 2025 Season

Originally posted on Total Apex Sports | By Justin Rimpi | Last updated Jul 17, 2025 1:29 PM ET

Los Angeles Dodgers Designated Hitter Shohei Ohtani has been great during the first half of the regular season. He has 27 multi-run games this year. That is the most any player has ever had at the All-Star break. He is on pace to have the highest percentage of games with multiple runs since Jimmie Foxx in 1939.

It has been a great year for the Japanese phenom. He is third in the league in home runs, 11th in OBP, third in Slugging Percentage, and third in OPS. Ohtani has also slowly returned to the mound. He has surrendered an earned run over 9 innings of work. Will he continue making history in the second half of the regular season?

Ohtani’s accolades are too numerous to list. He is a five-time MLB All-Star, three-time MVP, three-time Silver Slugger, Rookie of the Year, and World Series champion. He is one of the most talented players to ever appear in Major League Baseball.

Final Thoughts

Ohtani and the Los Angeles Dodgers begin the second half of their regular season at home against the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday. Even though the Dodgers limped into the All-Star break, they may have one of the most talented rosters ever assembled.
