Shohei Ohtani gave Dodgers fans a scare when he exited Wednesday’s start in the fourth inning after throwing wildly for six pitches.
The Dodgers’ superstar did remain in the game as a designated hitter, taking his at-bat in the sixth inning, where he struck out looking.
The team later announced that he exited his start because of cramps, The Athletic’s Fabian Ardaya reported.
Ohtani was in the midst of his seventh appearance on the mound since he returned from elbow surgery that prevented him from pitching all of last season.
