Ohtani to pitch but not hit against Mets

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts has announced Shohei Ohtani will start on the mound against the New York Mets but will not appear in the lineup as a hitter. This decision comes after Ohtani's dominant performance where he struck out 10 batters in six innings, allowing only one run and two hits.

Roberts indicated he is leaning toward having Ohtani both pitch and hit in his next start Tuesday in Houston. The Dodgers continue to evaluate the best approach for Ohtani as they balance his dual roles. livefromquarantine.club
