Shohei Ohtani Triple Crown Scenarios
Ohtani is in the midst of an incredible comeback for a chance at the NL batting title and Triple Crown. He is hitting .398 in September while Luis Arraez has gone ice cold- 0/12 in the last series against the Dodgers.
With 2 games left for both the Dodgers and Padres:
Shohei Ohtani has 194 hits in 627 at bats this season for a .309 batting average.
Luis Arraez has 199 hits in 634 at bats for a .314 average.
The chart above shows all possible scenarios (up to 8 at bats each) where Ohtani overtakes Arraez in batting average for the season. Boxes where Ohtani is successful are colored green.
It’s unlikely, but with Ohtani lately it seems like anything is possible.
