Shohei Ohtani hit the 200th home run of his major league career, but his Los Angeles Dodgers blew a five-run ninth-inning lead to the Detroit Tigers and lost 11-9 in 10 innings Saturday.
Ohtani became the first Japanese-born player to reach the 200-homer plateau when he led off the fifth inning with a shot just inside the right-field foul pole at Comerica Park, on a 1-0 changeup from Keider Montero.
It pushed Ohtani's National League-leading home run total to 29.
Ohtani also tripled in the first and achieved another milestone during the game, surpassing Hall of Famer Duke Snider for the Brooklyn/Los Angeles Dodgers franchise record for extra-base hits before the All-Star break with 56.
The two-time American League MVP finished 2-for-4 with two RBIs, three runs scored and two walks.
Freddie Freeman, Gavin Lux and Enrique Hernandez also drove in two runs each to help the Dodgers build a 9-4 lead through eight innings.
But the Tigers stormed back to tie the game with a five-run ninth and won it on a two-run walk-off homer by Gio Urshela in the 10th.
