Dodgers’ Shohei Ohtani Likely to Make Pitching Debut vs Padres, Says Dave Roberts

Los Angeles Dodgers two-way star Shohei Ohtani could be back on a big league mound sometime this week, according to manager Dave Roberts.

Roberts said Ohtani’s pitching debut could be against the San Diego Padres, a series which begins Monday. Ohtani will serve as an opener for the Dodgers.

“Shohei is getting antsy,” Roberts said Sunday. “He’s ready to pitch in a big-league game. My guess an inning to start.”
