Having hosted its first game on April 10, 1962, Dodger Stadium is the third-oldest active ballpark in Major League Baseball. Since its opening, only five players have hit a total of six home runs entirely out of the stadium during game competition.
The first home run hit out of Dodger Stadium was launched by Willie Stargell on Aug. 5, 1969. The most recent occurrence was Fernando Tatis Jr.’s home run on Sept. 30, 2021.
That said, Shohei Ohtani nearly joined this exclusive list with a 473-foot home run off Boston Red Sox right-hander Kutter Crawford on July 21. It marked the second longest homer at Dodger Stadium in the Statcast era, which dates back to 2015.
