San Francisco's Patrick Bailey had been the last catcher to throw out Ohtani, on July 22, also at second base.
Ohtani's RBI single off Kodai Senga had given the Dodgers a 3-0 lead and chased the New York Mets starter. Ohtani added a single in the fourth against David Peterson as a run came home on right fielder Starling Marte's fielding error, then scored on Freddie Freeman's single for a 6-0 margin.
Ohtani became the first 50-50 player, hitting .310, leading the NL with 54 homers and 130 RBIs, and stealing 59 bases in 63 attempts.
The two-way star did not pitch this year following elbow surgery.
