The latest win — which sunk the Braves to a worst-case scenario 0-7 — came via Shohei Ohtani's walk-off home run and the only thing more epic than the blast was the team's celebration, which seemed to mock one of Ohtani's Japanese commercials.

But what some people might have missed was the subtle and amusing way in which Ohtani and the Dodgers decided to celebrate said walk-off. As Ohtani rounded third base and headed for the plate, he perfectly imitated the gesture he made in a commercial for a Japanese skincare company while Dodgers teammate Miguel Rojas gave him a Gatorade shower.

The Los Angeles Dodgers have an air of invincibility around them after becoming the only reigning champions to start an MLB season 8-0 despite not yet playing their best baseball.

Shohei Ohtani is that man. With the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Atlanta Braves tied 5–5 in the bottom of the ninth, Ohtani smashed the first pitch he saw for a 399-foot walk-off home run to win the team's eighth game of the season.

Shohei Ohtani did it again on his bobblehead night. The Japanese superstar hit a tiebreaking home run in the ninth inning, lifting the Los Angeles Dodgers over the winless Atlanta Braves 6-5 on Wednesday.

The Los Angeles Dodgers won the World Series in 2024 against the New York Yankees. Many wondered what kind of start the Dodgers would have to the 2025 MLB season after that. Pitcher/DH Shohei Ohtani and the Dodgers had a 7-0 record entering the April 3 matchup against the Atlanta Braves.

Shohei Ohtani came to the plate in the ninth inning and pummeled the first pitch he saw, hammering the changeup to left center field to lead the Los Angeles Dodgers to a walk-off win over the Atlanta Braves.
