Shohei Ohtani will make Los Angeles Dodgers' debut Tuesday

Shohei Ohtani will make his Los Angeles Dodgers' spring-training debut on Tuesday against the Chicago White Sox, who share the facility at Camelback Ranch at Glendale, Arizona.

Ohtani will be the designated hitter as he plays in a game for the first time since signing a 10-year, $700 million deal in the offseason.

It will also mark Ohtani's first game action since undergoing his second career Tommy John surgery on his right elbow in September. Ohtani will not pitch during the 2024 season.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts observed Ohtani closely on Sunday as the latter faced live pitching from right-hander Jesse Hahn.
