Ohtani Breaks Out of Early-Season Slump

Published June 4, 2026 · Updated June 4, 2026 · Fox Sports

Shohei Ohtani appears to have overcome whatever was bothering him earlier this season, delivering a stellar performance at the plate and on the mound.

After struggling early in the season and receiving some rest time, Ohtani has returned to form. He went 3-for-4 with two walks and a run in a 7-0 Dodgers win over the Diamondbacks, while also pitching six shutout innings with just two hits and one walk allowed.

The two-way star now boasts a .301/.420/.521 batting line with a 165 OPS+ that's better than all but one of his Angels seasons. With his on-base percentage leading the NL, Ohtani is just a seven-inning outing away from potentially leading the league in both OBP and ERA. newsbetting.cv
