Angels two-way star Shohei Ohtani is scheduled to return to the mound Thursday in the finale of Los Angeles' three-game series against the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park.
The reigning AL MVP was originally scheduled to pitch Tuesday in Boston, but his start was pushed back after making an early exit Sunday because of groin tightness.
Ohtani wasn't in the Angels' starting lineup Monday against the Chicago White Sox but did pinch hit, grounding out in the top of the eighth inning.
Ohtani was pinch hit for in the ninth inning of Sunday's game against the White Sox after hitting into a double play two innings earlier.
