Dodgers Predicted to Cut Ties With All-Star After Shohei Ohtani News originally appeared on Athlon Sports. When Shohei Ohtani returns to the mound for the Los Angeles Dodgers, there will be some decisions that have to be made by the front office.

Shohei Ohtani had never gone 10 games without hitting a homer for the Los Angeles Dodgers until this month. The three-time MVP ended his drought Saturday night — and then started making up for lost time.

Andy Pages hit a game-turning three-run home run in the fifth inning, Shohei Ohtani had three hits and scored two runs, and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the San Francisco Giants 5-4 on Sunday night.

Shohei Ohtani had a quiet night on Monday as the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the San Diego Padres 8-7 in 10 innings. Ohtani doubled in his first at-bat, but was held hitless the rest of the night. Ohtani did reach base twice more in the game as he walked in the top of the fourth and then reached on a throwing error in the eighth.

Shohei Ohtani hit two homers and Clayton Kershaw pitched seven scoreless innings of three-hit ball in the Los Angeles Dodgers’ 11-5 victory over the San Francisco Giants.
