New York Yankees pitcher Carlos Rodón heaped high praise for Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani, but with one caveat.
“He’s a good hitter, but anybody is pitchable,” Rodón said, via MLB.com.
Rodón is speaking from experience as the Dodgers traveled to the Bronx to face the Yankees in a highly-touted series in June.
The New York pitching staff, for the most part, managed to contain Ohtani. He went 2-for-13 with four runs scored, an RBI, and a walk in the series.
Although Ohtani didn’t play his best, the Dodgers won the best-of-three series in the summer.
