Dodgers manager Dave Roberts says it is “just a routine day off,” but Ohtani is still struggling with runners in scoring position.
Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani wasn’t in the lineup Wednesday night after starting each of his first 32 games with the Dodgers. PHOENIX — When the Dodgers posted their starting lineup for Wednesday’s game, it was their first no Sho of the season.
Roberts said it was “just a routine day off” and not prompted by anything. But Ohtani was 1 for 5 Tuesday with three strikeouts and is 5 for his past 26 . He was 0 for 2 with runners in scoring position on Tuesday – though a run did score on a wild pitch while he was batting with the bases loaded – and if there is any blemish to be found in Ohtani’s excellent start this season it is in those situations. He is batting .184 .
Buehler made his final rehab start for OKC on Tuesday, completing five innings for the first time in his six starts.“Last night, I was really impressed because he was pitching. I thought he used his entire pitch mix really well,” Roberts said. “The velocity was still there. And he was getting outs. So last night I thought clearly was his best one.”
