MLB’s Post on Dodgers Star Shohei Ohtani Catches Attention originally appeared on Athlon Sports. No matter what Shohei Ohtani does, it’s headline-worthy in the world of baseball. The Dodgers' superstar recently made his first appearance on the mound this season and continues to perform as one of the game’s most elite hitters.

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 already had Dodgers fans on their feet before the team began their matchup with the Padres on Wednesday.
