Dodgers World Series: Shohei Ohtani Wants To Be ‘Prepared’ For Possible Relief Appearance

Freddie Freeman delivered another walk-off home run, but Shohei Ohtani was a headliner in his own right after the Toronto Blue Jays and Los Angeles Dodgers tied a World Series record in Game 3 by playing 18 innings at Dodger Stadium.

That was both because of his on-base streak and also due to what loomed Tuesday in Game 4. Ohtani had already been lined up to make his first pitching start in the World Series well before taking part in the marathon contest that saw him experience cramping.

He nevertheless made the start and pitched six-plus innings.
