Ohtani Out to Pitch, In to DH | California News
Description
Shohei Ohtani’s pitching debut this Friday is off due to a nagging left knee issue, but he’ll still DH for the Dodgers — keeping him in the game, just not on the mound. The team’s prioritizing his long-term health, with a recovery plan ahead of the second half and skipping the All-Star Game. With the Dodgers leading the league at 61 wins and a top pitching staff, they’re taking it slow with their superstar. The Diamondbacks, who’ve been inconsistent on the road and are hot with home runs, come to town for a critical series — the eighth matchup this year, where LA’s held the edge. Fans may miss seeing Ohtani pitch, but his health is the priority — and everyone’s watching to see when he’ll return to full form.
