LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Shohei Ohtani allowed an early run in his pitching debut for the Los Angeles Dodgers, but quickly made up for it with two clutch hits and a pair of RBIs in a 6-3 victory over the San Diego Padres on Monday night.
The two-way superstar averaged 96.8 mph on nine fastballs and threw 28 pitches in the first inning, 21 months after right elbow surgery. It was his first outing since August 2023 with the Angels.
