Dodgers pitcher Shohei Ohtani (31) took to the plate for his third live batting practice (batting practice) of this camp on the 19th (20th Japan time) and had 1 hit in 2 at bats. He hit the first pitch from right-handed Stone to center field, and left-handed Bashear missed a fastball from a full count and was struck out. Bashir attacked Otani and roared. As a hitter, his live BP in this camp is 2 hits in 7 total at-bats. Manager Dave Roberts has announced that he will participate in the first exhibition game against the Angels on the 21st (22nd Japan time) and against the enemy Padres on the 22nd (23rd Japan time), and is making steady preparations for the WBC, where he will participate as a batter. After the live BP, as he was heading to the clubhouse, Teoscar Hernandez stopped him and asked, “Where are you going?” Otani said, “Play catch,” and Hernandez exchanged words with him, “I forgot you were a pitcher.” Sponichi Annex delivering the latest news https://www.sponichi.co.jp/ Sponichi Photo and Video Department’s X (old Twitter) https://x.com/Sponichi_Photo Sponichi Photo and Video Department’s Instagram https://www.instagram.com/sponichiphoto_official?igsh=MWVyZmZzcGpvNmsycA== Sponichi’s X (former Twitter) https://twitter.com/sponichiannex
