Ohtani throws two scoreless innings in the Dodgers’ 9-5 loss to the Royals as he continues his return from second elbow surgery.

The Los Angeles Dodgers are trying not to put so much pressure on the pitching arm of Shohei Ohtani. While he is playing in bursts and single innings, Ohtani continues to show that his pitching ability is still one of the best in the league.

Ohtani throws two scoreless innings, and Freddie Freeman snaps his slump with three hits, including a home run. The Dodgers rally late but lose, 9-5, after trailing by eight runs.
