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.

There's no reason for Dodgers fans to fret. Ohtani was always expected to throw just an inning or two tonight as he slowly finds his rhythm again on the bump. Usually, when pitchers return from injuries, they throw a few rehab starts in the minor leagues. Of course, that's not possible for Ohtani, who is the best offensive player on his team, too.

Shohei Ohtani gave up an early run in his pitching debut for the Los Angeles Dodgers, but quickly made up for it at the plate with two clutch hits and a pair of RBIs in a 6-3 victory over the San Diego Padres.
