Shohei Ohtani’s chase for another 50/50 season is real—math and stamina will decide if baseball’s unicorn can do it again.

After a frustrating 7-6 loss to the Chicago Cubs, Ohtani missed an opportunity with runners in scoring position, and he’s batting .261 overall and .224 in his last 14 games. It’s not a scorching start like last year, but it’s hardly a disaster, especially this early.

Shohei Ohtani, struggling since returning from the paternity list and slumping even before that, can't get the key hit as Dodgers lose to Cubs.
