Shohei Ohtani Extends Home Run Streak, Targeted for Strong Friday Performance Against Red Sox

Los Angeles Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani recently extended his home run streak to five consecutive games, matching a franchise record and bringing his National League-leading total to 37 homers for the season. He is now only three games shy of tying the MLB record for consecutive games with a home run, with an opportunity to extend the streak against the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park, where the Green Monster could aid his left-field power. Ohtani is batting .273 with 37 homers and 12 doubles, and SportsLine's model is backing him to exceed 1.5 total bases on Friday, projecting him for 2.1 total bases. Betting odds for Friday include +225 for him to homer and +150 for him to record multiple hits.
