The Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday defeated the Arizona Diamondbacks 14-11 in a thrilling, back-and-forth game that featured plenty of lead changes and theatrics. The Dodgers ultimately prevailed thanks to a six-run ninth inning and some heroics from two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani.
Facing Diamondbacks righthander Kevin Ginkel in the top of the ninth, Ohtani broke an 11-11 tie with a 426-foot, three-run home run. Then, in one of the coolest moments this season, the Dodgers slugger flipped his bat and sent his arms skyward in celebration of his clutch dinger.
