Baseball: Ohtani homers in Dodgers' exhibition win over Yomiuri
@Source: kyodonews.net
Shohei Ohtani met the expectations of a packed crowd with a two-run blast as the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Yomiuri Giants 5-1 in an exhibition game Saturday. The two-way superstar, playing in his native Japan for the first time since the 2023 World Baseball Classic, homered into the right-field seats to push the Dodgers' lead to 4-0 in a five-run third inning at Tokyo Dome. Michael Conforto and Teoscar Hernandez each hit a solo home run in the same inning. Ohtani led off the game with a walk and grounded out in his other plate appearance before being replaced by a pinch-hitter in the eighth. Justin Wrobleski started for the Dodgers and retired all six batters he faced before seven relievers took care of the rest. Yomiuri ace Shosei Togo gave up five runs in six innings. The Dodgers will play the Chicago Cubs in the first two games of Major League Baseball's season Tuesday and Wednesday. Related coverage
