Shohei Ohtani hits an inside-the-park “Little League” home run for the Los Angeles Dodgers during a game against the Los Angeles Angels at Angel Stadium. Multiple outlets report that the ball goes off netting in right field, leading to confusion about the play and prompting Ohtani to keep running. Ohtani scores after coming around to score on a sequence that includes a triple and an error, with the ball’s contact with the netting in right field a key factor in how the play develops.
While Ohtani initially is not fully sure what happened when he hit the ball down the right-field line, he focuses on advancing and completes the run for the home run. The reporting characterizes it as a rare outcome tied to the ball-in-netting scenario and the resulting ball placement and fielding response. The Dodgers ultimately win decisively in the game, with Ohtani’s score among the runs in the rout.
