Shohei Ohtani has achieved many feats during an impressive first season with the Los Angeles Dodgers, and the latest was to become a 30-30 player.

Ohtani entered play Saturday with a National League-best 33 home runs. He didn’t add onto that total in a 10-0 blowout win against the Oakland Athletics, but did swipe three bases. That gave Ohtani a career-high 31 stolen bases and made him the third player in Dodgers franchise history with a 30-30 season.

Raúl Mondesi was first to accomplish the feat, which he did twice. Matt Kemp then joined the list of Dodgers with a 30-30 season in 2011, and now Ohtani has put his name in the record books.

The two-way star stole three bases in the contest to give him a career-high 31 this year. Having entered the day with a National League-high 33 home runs, he officially became the third Dodgers player in franchise history to post a 30-30 season.

Dodgers 30-30 seasons

Shohei Ohtani (2024)

Ohtani needed all of 108 games to accumulate 30 home runs and 30 stolen bases, which is third-fewest in MLB history. Only Eric Davis (90; 1987) and Alex Rodríguez (107; 1998) reached those totals in a lower number of games.

Ohtani also recorded the 70th 30-30 season in MLB history. He is on pace to hit 48 home runs and steal 45 bases this year, which would be the first 40-40 season in Dodgers franchise history.

Only José Canseco (1988), Barry Bonds (1996), Rodríguez (1998), Alfonso Soriano (2006) and Ronald Acuña Jr. (2023) have posted a 40-40 season in MLB history.

Matt Kemp (2011)

In a year that should’ve ended with the 2011 National League MVP Award, Matt Kemp hit .324/.399/.586 with 33 doubles, 39 home runs, 126 RBI and 40 stolen bases while also winning a Gold Glove in center field.

Raúl Mondesi (1999)

Raúl Mondesi built on his first 30-30 season by increasing those totals to 33 homers and 36 stolen bases in 1999.

Raúl Mondesi (1997)

Mondesi had the first 30-30 season in Dodgers franchise history when he finished with 30 home runs and 32 stolen bases in 1997.
