Shohei Ohtani's return to the mound lasted five batters Wednesday.

The Los Angeles Angels' two-way phenom exited his start against the Cincinnati Reds in the second inning due to arm fatigue, the team announced. He did not remain in the game as a designated hitter.

There wasn't much of a debate about removing Ohtani, as he called for the training staff after a pitch and soon left the game.

Shohei Ohtani has left the mound with the trainer and is out of the game pic.
