Dodgers host Rays in series finale with Ohtani on the mound
Summary

The Los Angeles Dodgers are set to face the Tampa Bay Rays in their final home weekday game of the regular season on Wednesday, June 17, at Dodger Stadium, starting at 12:10 p.m. Shohei Ohtani, with a 1.06 ERA and 2.63 xERA, is scheduled to pitch, pending his recovery from knee inflammation. Left-hander Shane McClanahan will start for the Rays. Tommy Edman, activated off the injured list, is expected to play third base for the Dodgers. Ohtani's recent performance as a designated hitter indicates he is in good form, but his pitching status will depend on his knee's response after his latest bullpen session.
