Dave Roberts says Shohei Ohtani will be in NLCS Game 3 lineup tomorrow despite hitting slump
Ohtani is 1-7 in the NLCS through two games.
Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts announced on Tuesday that Shohei Ohtani will start in the lineup for their next game in the NLCS. Ohtani has struggled, going just 1-for-7 through the series, and appears to be feeling the pressure. "He doesn't feel great," Roberts said, adding that they will discuss what is best for Ohtani and the team.
Ohtani himself is reportedly confident, stating he feels good enough to play. However, his recent performance has been criticized for taking non-competitive at-bats, with one particularly notable strikeout against JoJo Romero in Game 2.
