Los Angeles Dodgers president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman shut down the possibility of Shohei Ohtani pitching for the club during the postseason on Thursday, telling the Orange County Register's Bill Plunkett that Ohtani is "not really an option.

Ohtani hit his 50th homer of the season in the top of the seventh inning after stealing his 50th and 51st bases earlier in the game.

Two-time AL MVP Shohei Ohtani got a two-run blast off Miami Marlins starter Darren McCaughan on Tuesday night to move to 48 homers and 48 steals on the year.
