Shohei Ohtani continues to make history for the Los Angeles Dodgers. During Saturday night's rout of the Toronto Blue Jays (LA 9, TOR 1), Ohtani slugged his 40th home run of the season, and he did so in the team's 117th game.

The two-way Japanese star reached 40 homes for the fourth time in his career, after winning MVP awards in each of the previous three years he did it. Last year, Ohtani hit a career-high 54 home runs in winning the National League MVP in his first year with the Dodgers.

Shohei Ohtani led off the game with his 41st homer, but Ernie Clement hit the tiebreaking homer leading off the ninth inning, and the AL-leading Toronto Blue Jays hung on to avoid a series sweep with a 5-4 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday.
