It wasn't a perfect return to the mound for Shohei Ohtani, but the Dodgers feel good about what it meant for the two-way star.

Shohei Ohtani has accomplished so much already for the Dodgers, but he finally displayed why he is the game's two-way superstar.

For the first time in 21 months, Shohei Ohtani was able to do what makes him such an anomaly among big leaguers: pitch.

Shoehi Ohtani’s debut wasn’t perfect, but it also could have gone a lot worse. After not pitching in nearly two years, the Japanese right-hander clearly showed signs of rust and lack of command in his first big league action of the season.

Exactly 663 days since he last pitched in a Major League game, the Dodgers superstar returned to the mound on Monday night—and quickly unleashed some eye-popping stuff.

Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani lead the American League and the National League, respectively, with the most All-Star votes so far.

Ahead of his return to the mound, and Dodgers pitching debut, the two-way sensation continues to showcase his unique greatness.
