Yankees Pitcher Praises Dodgers’ Shohei Ohtani But Says ‘Anyone is Pitchable’

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.
