The day that everyone has been waiting for has finally arrived.
It's Shohei Ohtani day, and all eyes are on the Los Angeles Dodgers brand new — $700 million — designated hitter.
As a refresher, Ohtani will only play on offense during his first season with the Dodgers, as he continues to recover from the reconstructive surgery he had in September to address the torn ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow. Los Angeles has already stated, he won't see the mound in 2024.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Ohtani looked good in the lead up to the game, so fans will get to watch him bat second in the lineup.
