Oct. 17 (UPI) -- Shohei Ohtani roped a 397-foot blast over Citi Field's right field foul pole for one of three Los Angeles Dodgers home runs in an 8-0 domination of the New York Mets for a 2-1 NLCS lead.

Ohtani's three-run blast came in the top of the eighth inning of the lopsided affair Wednesday in Queens. The National League MVP favorite went 1 for 4 with three RBIs, a run scored, a walk and a strikeout.
