Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani reached base for the 52nd straight game as the Dodgers rolled past Colorado.
The Los Angeles Dodgers continued their dominant stretch on Monday night, powered once again by Shohei Ohtani, who added another milestone to his already historic campaign.
In a 12-3 victory over the Colorado Rockies, Ohtani extended his on-base streak to 52 consecutive games, further cementing his place among the franchise’s all-time greats.
Ohtani reached safely in the third inning with a single to right field, continuing a streak that has steadily climbed the Dodgers’ record books. The reigning MVP finished the night 1-for-4 while drawing two walks and scoring twice, showcasing his consistent ability to impact the game even beyond the batter’s box.
With the milestone, Ohtani now sits alone in third place on the Dodgers’ on-base streak list (since 1900), trailing only Shawn Green, who reached base in 53 straight games in 2000, and Hall of Famer Duke Snider, whose 58-game streak in 1954 remains the franchise all-time leader.
Ohtani’s run began on August 24, 2025, and has since evolved into one of the most remarkable stretches in recent memory.
Along the way, Ohtani has surpassed several notable marks. Earlier this season, he moved past Ron Cey and his 47-game streak from the mid-1970s, and most recently eclipsed the 50-game run set by Willie Keeler over a century ago.
Monday’s performance also pushed him beyond Babe Ruth’s career-best 51-game stretch from 1923, adding another legendary name to the list of players he has outpaced.
His dominance against the Rockies has been particularly striking. Ohtani has now reached base safely in 35 consecutive games against the Rockies dating back to 2021, while also maintaining a lengthy hitting streak against the club and thriving in the hitter-friendly environment of Coors Field.
Beyond franchise history, Ohtani’s streak has also etched its place on a broader stage. Earlier this year, he passed Ichiro Suzuki for the longest on-base streak by a Japanese-born player.
While still chasing history, the all-time MLB mark remains distant. Ted Williams holds the modern-era record with an 84-game on-base streak set in 1949. Still, with Ohtani’s consistency showing no signs of slowing, each game adds another layer to an already unforgettable run.
