Shohei Ohtani has been the center of attention in the baseball universe for months. Now we’ll finally get to watch him play again.
The man who dominated the MLB offseason conversation will play his first game in a Dodgers uniform on Tuesday, Feb. 27, against the White Sox in Glendale, Ariz.
Ohtani’s debut with a new team would be noteworthy regardless, but this will also mark the two-way star’s first game action of any kind since Sept. 3. The Angels shut him down after that due to a torn ligament in his right elbow and an oblique strain and he underwent elbow surgery later in September.
That procedure will keep him off the mound in 2024, but he has been cleared to swing the bat, so he’ll be a full-time designated hitter in his first season after signing a $ 700 million deal with the Dodgers.
