Shohei Ohtani is making his Los Angeles Dodgers pitching debut, 643 days after the two-way superstar had elbow surgery.

Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani will make his long-awaited return to the mound on Monday night against the San Diego Padres (GameTracker). Ohtani's outing will represent his first since Aug.

When the Los Angeles Dodgers signed Shohei Ohtani, they got one of the most dominant hitters in baseball. But they also got a fantastic pitcher, too.
