Shohei Ohtani created the 50/50 club this season when he became the first MLB player in history to hit 50 home runs and steal 50 bases in the same year. Ohtani's 50th home run came on September 19th against the Miami Marlins in one of the greatest hitting performances in baseball history.

In that game, Ohtani went 6-for-6, hit three home runs, had two doubles, and drove in 10 runs. It was spectacular, which only makes the 50th home run ball cooler.
