Shohei Ohtani gets winning hit in Dodgers’ walk-off victory

Shohei Ohtani got an impromptu shower near the second-base bag Sunday afternoon, his teammates dousing him with two buckets of water after the slugger lined a two-out, run-scoring single to right field in the bottom of the 10th inning to lift the Dodgers to a 3-2 walk-off victory over the Cincinnati Reds.

New Dodgers left-hander Anthony Banda, acquired from Cleveland for cash on Friday, set the stage for the dramatic win when he stranded the automatic runner in the top of the 10th by striking out Mike Ford with an 83-mph cut-fastball, getting Jeimer Candelario to ground out to third and Jake Fraley to ground out to first.
