Dodgers miss Shohei Ohtnai’s bat, can’t get him off the hook for loss to Marlins
The Dodgers lost 2-1 to the Marlins despite a strong start from Shohei Ohtani, who pitched six innings with nine strikeouts but did not bat due to workload management. The team struggled offensively, managing only seven hits and failing to capitalize on early scoring chances. Ohtani's absence from the lineup was felt as the Dodgers were unable to generate enough offense to overcome Miami's pitching.
