Los Angeles – Shohi OhtaniOn Wednesday, the 87th pitch, a slider, inspired a harmless groundout, which also triggered a milestone. With this, Los angeles doors‘Two-way superstar completed five innings for the first time after returning from the second repair of his Ulnaar collateral ligament, a sign that his prolonged pitching rehabilitation finally reached its conclusion.
However, Ohtani did not have time to appreciate this moment – it was his turn to hit.
Instead of making rounds with a third-base dugout and resting on the bench, Ohtani has a hasty batting helmet, some of the elbow and shin guards, grabbed their bat and read themselves to lead the bottom of the fifth innings. Till that point, he had already worked to lift most of the heavy rally-by igniting the rally, by visiting, Cincinnati Reds For one run and by setting the tone in your first dose win of the season.
“I am excited for Shohi,” Dosers’ manager Dave Roberts said 5–1, after a sweep-clining win. “You know, he was a hitter away from not getting a chance to win due to the count of the pitch, so I think it was good for him to get that victory.”
For now, at least, doors are essentially treating five innings – and thus, somewhere in the neighborhood of 90 pitches – as the boundary of ohtani in this season. Ohtani asked the border to reach “really important in the matter of moving forward”, but the way he went there was equally important.
After the back-to-back starts, in which he allowed a joint nine runs in the 8 The innings against the final place. Colorado Rockies And Los angels angelsOhthani rely very much on his braking pitches while limiting Reds to one run – a single homer Noelvi marte -And a season-high is taking out nine batsmen. Ohtani did not throw a single curlball until the eighth beginning of the season on 6 August, then only 11 of them glowed at the stretch of three outings. On Wednesday, Ohtani ignored 17 of them, out of which four strikeout.
After relying heavily on her four-seam fastball and quickly sweeper in her return, Ohtani was suddenly bending on what could be for her fifth best pitch, in search of a key in search of a key in her search.
“We were a plan to stay away from fastball, as much as we had in the previous couple,” Dojers Catcher Dalton ran away Said. “This does not mean that we were not going to throw it tonight, but we were very quick-speed-hawi.
At the beginning of his return, Ohtani explained, the goal was to ensure that he had a fastball velocity where he should have been. Sweeper served as an effective secondary weapon, helping her to navigate low outing. Both of them were responsible for 81% of the pitches, when they faced Reds in Cincinnati on 30 July, a beginning, which was interrupted by leg cramps. About a month later, Ohtani threw only 35% sweeper and fastball. Other 65% were absorbed by splitors, ciners, cutters, sliders and, mostly, curveballs.
“I think the big thing about Shohi is that he can command when he is right, four or five pitches,” Roberts said. “When you are trying to go through a lineup three times, you are able to get into different pitches and scenes many times. To continue making it and give us an option, if we want to get a little longer length then it is definitely helpful, but it was a good marker, to get 90 pitches through five innings.”
For the first time, Ostani threw seven separate pitches in a scorerless innings, with 76 to 99 mph. He released two walks and threw two wild pitches in the other, but got out of the innings. K’Brian Hayes On a 100 mph fastball and Matt Maclain On an 89 mph rider. At the top of the third, after Marte’s Homer-A first pitch cutter on the first pitch cutter-Uthani retired eight consecutive batsmen to eliminate their outing.
In the middle of it, he led a line drive below the fourth, accounting for the first Basarner allowed by Reds Left-Hander Nick Lodolo, Teser hernandez, Andy page, Enric Hernandez And running, which deliberately left after Reds Miguel rosas Next to him, his own single contribution, he gave a leadership to the doseers, which they would not sacrifice.

Ohtani said through an interpreter, “Just looking at our roster, I really like that we are in terms of our early pitches and bullpen.” “I just want to make sure that I share my share as a starting pitcher to go deep into the game and help Bulpen.”
