The belief was Shohei Ohtani wouldn't pitch for the Dodgers until after the All-Star break, but it instead happens one month earlier than expected.

His first pitch was a 97.6 mph fastball low in the strike zone that Fernando Tatis Jr. fouled off. Ohtani got Tatis to swing and miss at a 98.3 mph fastball before the Padres right fielder hit an inside 99 mph pitch for a single. Tatis advanced to second on a wild pitch, which was clocked at 100.2 mph.
