Shohei Ohtani Scores Only Dodgers Run in NLCS Game 1 Loss

Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani moved to the cleanup spot in Game 1 of the NLCS, going 1-for-3 with a single, walk, and the team's only run in a 2-1 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers. Hitting off a velocity machine in extra batting practice to combat a slump while dealing with left knee and right arm injuries, Ohtani remains physically compromised with zero extra-base hits in the postseason. Manager Dave Roberts emphasized keeping him focused on staying in the strike zone.
