Shohei Ohtani snaps out of slump, homers on his first 3-hit day of season

LOS ANGELES —Dave Roberts said it best over the weekend.“You don’t hear the word slump correlated with Shohei (Ohtani) on the hitting side, ever,” the Dodgers manager quipped Saturday morning. “He’s working. It’ll balance itself out. But, yeah, he’s going through it right now.”Mired in a scuffle for most of April, Ohtani homered on Sunday to cap off his first three-hit day of the season. He reached base four times as the Dodgers beat the Cubs 6-0 in the rubber match of their three-game series at Dodger Stadium.Advertisement
