Roberts: Ohtani to Pitch and Hit Next Start

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts announced Shohei Ohtani will likely both pitch and hit in his next start Tuesday in Houston after a dominant pitching-only performance against the Mets.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts announced that Shohei Ohtani will likely both pitch and hit in his next start on Tuesday in Houston. This comes after Ohtani's dominant pitching performance against the Mets, where he struck out 10 batters and allowed just one run in six innings while being held out of the lineup as a hitter. mchezo.life

Ohtani's 22 swing-and-misses against the Mets were a career high with the Dodgers. The decision of whether Ohtani will consistently both pitch and hit in his starts remains a topic of evaluation as the season progresses.
