Shohei Ohtani homered in his spring debut with the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday.
The home run came in his final at-bat of the afternoon. He launched a two-run home run to left field.
"I thought I hit it a little too high initially, but the Arizona weather factored in a little bit," Ohtani said afterward through his interpreter, Ippei Mizuhara. "I felt better each time I came up. It's trending in the right direction."
Ohtani was playing his first game since undergoing right elbow surgery last September and his first since signing a 10-year, $700 million contract with the Dodgers in December.
