Marlins Win Series vs. Dodgers Thanks to a Really Bad Shohei Ohtani Baserunning Blunder

The Marlins beat the Dodgers 3-2 on Wednesday to win their first series in Los Angeles since 2018. It was so long ago that Shohei Ohtani was a rookie on the Angels at the time. Fittingly, Ohtani looked like a rookie when he got doubled off first base in the bottom of the ninth.

The Dodgers had the bases loaded with one out when Freddie Freeman hit the ball to second baseman Xavier Edwards. Edwards immediately ran towards Ohtani, who froze in his tracks before heading back towards first. Edwards caught Ohtani as he tried to spin and head to second. Edwards then stepped on first to complete the double play.
