Major League Dodgers player Shohei Otani and pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto started camp in Arizona on the 9th in preparation for the start of the season. The Dodgers will open the season opener in South Korea on the 20th of next month.
Otani responded to an interview with the press before the first day's practice and said, based on his recovery status from the surgery on his right elbow last year, he will move on to hitting the ball. Yamamoto threw 21 pitches, including some breaking balls.
