LA Angels Ace Shohei Ohtani will be starting on the mound for the AL All-Star team Tuesday.
Yes, that means that less than 24 hours after he hit the most 500-foot bombs ever recorded in a Home Run Derby, he’ll be both starting on the mound and as the American League Designated Hitter.
Not only that, but he’ll also be batting leadoff.
