GENERAL REPORT: Shohei Ohtani Return Date Revealed, Another Reliever to Injured List, Roki Sasaki Velocity Down

The Los Angeles Dodgers fell to the Texas Rangers Saturday, 4-3, and moved to 15-7 on the season.

Luckily, the Dodgers are planning to finish the series against the Rangers with Shohei Ohtani back in the lineup Sunday.

It will be his first game as a father since he and his wife announced Saturday that they have welcomed a healthy baby girl into the world.
