LOS ANGELES —
He was at it again Saturday night, hitting a two-run shot against the Rays for home run No. 41 on the year.
Earlier in the day, Ohtani threw 10 pitches in the bullpen at Dodger Stadium, closely tracked by a horde of media. He had surgery in September after injuring his elbow while with the Los Angeles Angels. Three months later, he joined the Dodgers on a $700 million, 10-year contract.
The team has emphasized that Ohtani won’t be pitching at all this season, including in the postseason.
Ohtani has been playing as a designated hitter this season.
