Dodgers Make Shohei Ohtani Announcement After Padres Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Los Angeles Dodgers have continued to assert their dominance in the NL West, sitting atop the division with a 46-29 record that has expanded their lead to 4.5 games over the San Francisco Giants (41-33) and the San Diego Padres (39-34).

On Monday, Dodgers center fielder Andy Pages took exception to being hit by a pitch. Los Angeles retaliated on Tuesday by plunking Fernando Tatis Jr. in the top of the third inning. In the bottom half of the inning, Shohei Ohtani caught one in the upper leg.

Shohei Ohtani has been hit by a pitch from San Diego Padres starter Randy Vásquez in the third inning, and Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts was ejected after arguing on the field.
