Dodgers' Shohei Ohtani found himself in impossible pickle to complete Marlins surprise
In a surprising end to a game against the Miami Marlins, Shohei Ohtani found himself caught in a rundown during a bases-loaded, ninth-inning situation, ultimately contributing to a game-ending double play. Ohtani initially ran toward second base on a chopper hit by Freddie Freeman but reversed direction, drawing infielder Xavier Edwards toward first. His attempt to disrupt the play backfired as Edwards tagged Ohtani and stepped on first base to secure the Marlins' victory.
