Shohei Ohtani of the Dodgers in Major League Baseball will start as the pitcher in the game against the Padres at their home stadium in Los Angeles on the 17th Japan time, marking his return as a two-way player for the first time in two seasons.
2023年に自身2度目となる右ひじのじん帯の修復手術を受けた大谷選手は今シーズン指名打者として出場を続けながらピッチャーとしてのリハビリを続け、10日には実戦形式の投球練習で3イニングを想定し44球を投げるなど順調な調整ぶりを見せていました
Shohei Ohtani, who underwent his second right elbow ligament repair surgery in 2023, has been steadily making progress in his recovery as a pitcher while continuing to play this season as a designated hitter. On the 10th, he showed good form by throwing 44 pitches over three simulated innings in a live pitching practice.
ドジャースは15日の試合後、公式SNSで大谷選手が16日、日本時間の17日に本拠地ロサンゼルスで行われるパドレスとの4連戦の初戦で先発登板すると発表しました
The Dodgers announced on their official social media after the game on the 15th that Ohtani will be the starting pitcher in the first game of the four-game series against the Padres at their home stadium in Los Angeles on the 16th 17th Japan time.
ロバーツ監督によりますと、1イニングの登板になる可能性が高く、バッターとしても出場し“投打の二刀流”での復帰になるということです
According to Manager Roberts, it is highly likely that he will pitch for just one inning, and he will also play as a batter, making his return as a two-way player.
大谷選手が投打の二刀流で試合に出場するのは、エンジェルスに所属した2シーズン前の2023年8月23日のレッズ戦以来で、およそ1年10か月ぶりです
Ohtani is playing as a two-way player, both pitching and hitting, for the first time in about a year and ten months, since the game against the Reds on August 23, 2023, two seasons ago when he was with the Angels.
