Shohei Ohtani Set to Start Wednesday After Unique In-Game Moment

Shohei Ohtani is scheduled to start Wednesday's series finale against the New York Mets at Dodger Stadium. Ohtani has been dominant on the mound this season, allowing zero earned runs through his first 12 innings of work. The start coincides with the 79th anniversary of Jackie Robinson’s debut, where all personnel will wear number 42. This follows a unique Monday night interaction involving Ohtani, Craig Kimbrel, and Francisco Alvarez that was captured during the game's coverage.
