Shohei Ohtani Works 2 Scoreless Innings and Strikes Out Side in 2nd on 31st Birthday

Shohei Ohtani, the Los Angeles Dodgers two-way superstar, pitched two scoreless innings, struck out the side in the second, on his 31st birthday.
Prompted by his Tommy John surgery recovery, Ohtani progressed from one- to two-inning rehab outings before Saturday’s scoreless performance.
Ohtani threw 31 pitches, topped out at 100.9 mph, striking out Walker, Caratini, and Diaz swinging in his second inning.
Dave Roberts praised Ohtani's control and stuff after his scoreless outing, but the Dodgers bullpen surrendered the lead and lost 6-4.
Ohtani’s upcoming start in San Francisco is expected to extend his workload to five or six innings, marking progress in his recovery and potential for longer outings.
