After a visit to the mound by manager Dave Roberts and the team&#8217;s medical staff, Ohtani remained in the game and got the last two outs of the inning, with the Dodgers trailing 5-0 at the time.\n\nThe clean runs that Ohtani allowed equaled the most he had allowed since July 2022, and the nine hits allowed tied a career high.\n\nOhtani remained in the game and received a walk in his at-bat in the fifth inning, but did not bat in the eighth. He was replaced by Alex Call, who struck out.\n\nThis was Ohtani&#8217;s tenth season opener, after not pitching in the 2024 season while recovering from elbow surgery.\n\n\n<p>Before Wednesday&#8217;s game, he had no decision and had an effectiveness of 3.47. This season, he hasn&#8217;t pitched more than 4 innings and a third or more than 80 pitches.
