Shohei Ohtani homers, goes 4 for 5, leads Dodgers to 11-4 rout of Rockies

It was a glorious Friday night at Coors Field. Unless, of course, you played for the Rockies, who were blasted 11-4. But if you were a blue-clad Dodgers fan — and there were plenty of them — it provided a chance to cheer on a team that locked up the National League West title for the 11th time in the last 12 seasons by defeating the Padres Thursday night. And if you were simply a fan of baseball legends, you got to see Shohei Ohtani continue his supernatural season. The Dodgers’ designated hitter, who’s a lock to win National League MVP, supplied the in-game pyrotechnics long before the postgame fireworks that drew an announced sellout crowd of 48,750 to the ballpark. Ohtani hit 4 for 5, slugged a three-run homer to the second deck above right field in the sixth inning, drove in four runs, and stole his 57th base.
