Los Angeles Dodgers slugger Shohei Ohtani threw a 50-pitch bullpen session Saturday, another step in his throwing program in his return from elbow surgery.

The start of the Los Angeles Dodgers’ homestand coincided with the franchise again partnering with Fanatics and Make-A-Wish to create a unique experience for seven children and their families at Dodger Stadium.

Shohei Ohtani is a leading candidate for the National League MVP. Ohtani’s prowess at the plate makes every at-bat must-see TV. However, he is still working on getting back to the second half of his game.
