Shohei Ohtani makes his 10th pitching start of the season for the Dodgers on Wednesday night against the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field in Phoenix.
Ohtani started once at Chase Field last year with the Dodgers, tossing six scoreless innings with eight strikeouts last September 23. Beginning with that start, Ohtani has pitched at least six innings in 12 of his last 13 starts on regular rest (excluding Game 7 of the World Series, on three days rest). He started once more in Phoenix with the Angels, allowing two runs in five innings with eight strikeouts on June 11, 2021.
Zac Gallen, the opening day starter for the D-backs, starts for Arizona on Wednesday. He lost on March 26 on Dodger Stadium, allowing four runs in four innings. He followed that up with a 2.19 ERA and 4.14 xERA in April, then a 7.04 ERA and 5.40 xERA in May. This will be his first start of June.
