MLB’s Post on Dodgers Star Shohei Ohtani Catches Attention originally appeared on Athlon Sports. No matter what Shohei Ohtani does, it’s headline-worthy in the world of baseball. The Dodgers' superstar recently made his first appearance on the mound this season and continues to perform as one of the game’s most elite hitters.

The Los Angeles Dodgers have continued to assert their dominance in the NL West, sitting atop the division with a 46-29 record that has expanded their lead to 4.5 games over the San Francisco Giants (41-33) and the San Diego Padres (39-34).

The two-way phenom had not been able to pitch in Major League Baseball since undergoing Tommy John surgery back in September 2023.
