What happened: Shohei Ohtani has pitched 24 innings across four starts for the Dodgers, surrendering just one earned run. His ERA stands at 0.38, with 28 strikeouts and only six walks. This marks his return from Tommy John surgery.

Why it matters: Ohtani's lights-out start stabilizes Dodgers' rotation amid playoff push. Boosts his Cy Young and team lines. Historically rare for a two-way star post-injury.

By the numbers: ERA: 0.38 | IP: 24 | ER: 1 | K: 28 | BB: 6 | Dodgers record: 4-0 in his starts. No injury concerns reported.

What to watch: Watch Ohtani's next start vs. Cubs for workload management. Monitor Dodgers rotation health ahead of series vs. Giants.
