Dodgers Manager Considers Shohei Ohtani for Game 7 Start
Shohei Ohtani might be the starting pitcher for Game 7 of the World Series on Saturday. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that all players will be available, except for Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who will not pitch.
Game 6 Recap
In Game 6, the Los Angeles Dodgers held off the Toronto Blue Jays with a 3-1 win, surviving a dramatic ninth inning to force a winner-take-all Game 7. The Blue Jays are expected to start left-hander Max Scherzer, a three-time Cy Young Award winner and former Dodger.
Dodgers' Pitching Plans
The Dodgers’ pitching strategy for Game 7 remains flexible and could involve Ohtani in various roles.
- Ohtani might start the game as a pitcher.
- He could serve as an opener or pitch several innings.
- There is also a possibility he might play as an outfielder.
“I think right now, there’s no wrong answer,” Roberts said. “He’s certainly going to be a part of the pitching plan. With Shohei it could be two innings, but it could be four innings. So I’m not sure where we’re going to slot him. We’re going to have to talk to him first on where he feels most comfortable.”
Tyler Glasnow may also pitch on consecutive days for the Dodgers as they finalize their lineup for the decisive game.
