Open Extended ReactionsDENVER -- Los Angeles Dodgers two-way star Shohei Ohtani had a forgettable outing in his first career pitching start against the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field.
Ohtani left Wednesday's 8-3 loss after giving up five earned runs and nine hits in four innings and batting in the fifth inning.
After a mound visit from manager Dave Roberts and team medical personnel, Ohtani stayed in the game and got the last two outs of the inning, with the Dodgers trailing 5-0 at the time.
Ohtani stayed in the game and drew a walk in his at-bat in the fifth inning but did not bat in the eighth.
Ohtani was making his 10th start of the season after not pitching in the 2024 season while recovering from elbow surgery.
