Los Angeles Dodgers say Shohei Ohtani will make first pitching start since elbow surgery on Monday vs. San Diego Padres.

Shohei Ohtani is going to be the starting pitcher for the Los Angeles Dodgers on Monday night against San Diego, 21 months ...

Shohei Ohtani's much-anticipated return to the mound is happening sooner than expected.

Andy Pages hit a game-turning three-run home run in the fifth inning, Shohei Ohtani had three hits and scored two runs, and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the San Francisco Giants 5-4 on Sunday night.

The Japanese player will pitch for his MLB side for the first time since his signing a $700m contract with them in 2024.
