On the 10th, the second day of camp, Shohei Otani of the Major League Baseball Dodgers made adjustments by doing things like sprinting outdoors.
On the 10th, Ohtani made his first adjustments outdoors during the second day of training in Glendale, Arizona.
Otani has been practicing in parallel with rehabilitation for his right elbow, which he had surgery on last year, and when he showed up at the outdoor practice field just after 10 a.m., he warmed up with the team's trainer, and then showed off the distance and speed on his chest. I wore a device that measured my heart rate and other things, and ran a series of sprints.
He adjusted for about 40 minutes, looking at his tablet, talking enthusiastically with the trainer, and occasionally laughing, in a relaxed manner.
Afterwards, he entered an indoor batting practice range with a bat and apparently practiced batting for about 30 minutes.
Afterwards, Otani entered the team facility while chatting with pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who had finished general practice, but at around 12:50 p.m., he reappeared at the outdoor practice field, carrying large balls and dumbbells. After about 10 minutes of training using the , I finished my practice.
In an interview with the press on the 9th, Otani said, ``I'm still about a month away from pitching practice, so I want to focus on batting, running, and getting in shape,'' and said he will continue to focus on batting. Adjustments are expected to continue.
