Ohtani will face hitters for the fourth time early in the upcoming week after building up to three innings on 44 pitches in his previous live session.

Shohei Ohtani has hit two homers against the San Francisco Giants on Saturday night, emphatically ending the three-time MVP's longest homer drought since joining the Los Angeles Dodgers.

After the San Francisco Giants acquired Rafael Devers, one of the Dodgers' starting pitchers, Clayton Kershaw, was very complimentary of the rival organization.

The trade of Rafael Devers from the Boston Red Sox to the San Francisco Giants has shocked the baseball world.

“Rafael Devers did not demand a trade, a source with knowledge of the discussions says,” Cortillo posted on X (formerly Twitter).

Harrison has surrendered eight earned runs on 13 hits and three walks across 9 1/3 innings over his past two starts, while May has been sharp at home for the Dodgers. The Los Angeles starter has a tidy 2.97 ERA and 1.11 WHIP across his six home starts, and May has recorded 5+ strikeouts in five of the six with 10.0 K/9 and a 27.2 strikeout rate.

With Los Angeles leading 11-0, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts sent out position player Enrique Hernández to pitch the top of the ninth.
