Shohei Ohtani Strikes Out 10 in Win Over Mets
Los Angeles Dodgers two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani was focused only on pitching in his start on Wednesday against the New York Mets at Dodgers Stadium, and he delivered. Ohtani picked up his second win of the season in an 8-2 win, allowing only one earned run on two hits while walking two and striking out 10 in six innings of work. The 31-year-old Japanese superstar and four-time MVP was mowing hitters down, and he generated a whopping 22 swings and misses on the night. Ohtani mixed all of his pitches well and displayed his elite heater (he hit 100 mph several times) to befuddle the struggling Mets lineup. We all know how good Ohtani is with a bat in his hands, but Wednesday night served as a reminder that he's also pretty elite as a starting pitcher, too. Through his first three starts in 2026 (18 innings), Ohtani has allowed only two runs (one earned) on seven hits) while walking six and striking out 18. He'll be a must-start in fantasy lineups for his next scheduled start on the mound next week in San Francisco against the division-rival Giants.
