LOS ANGELES — Shohei Ohtani hit his 46th home run of the season to tie his career high, a 450-foot solo shot down the right-field line in the fifth inning of the Los Angeles Dodgers' 4-0 victory over the Cleveland Guardians on a sweltering Sunday. On a day that matched the hottest Dodger Stadium first-pitch temperature at 103 degrees, Ohtani connected off Tanner Bibee. The homer was reviewed to see if it was fair. Ohtani also hit 46 home runs in 2021 for the Los Angeles Angels. The Japanese star has 46 stolen bases in a bid to become the first major league player with a 50-50 season. It also was 103 for first pitch for Game 1 of the 2017 World Series against Houston.
