The Los Angeles Dodgers and their fans won’t have to wait much longer to see Roki Sasaki in action, as manager Dave Roberts announced that the highly anticipated Japanese pitching sensation will make his Cactus League debut on Tuesday against the Cincinnati Reds.

Shohei Ohtani is back on the attack, and Roki Sasaki is getting close. Ohtani, the unanimous 2024 National League MVP after the first 50-homer/50-stolen base season in Major League history, took his first live batting practice of the spring Sunday.

Facing hitters for the first time in Dodgers camp this spring, Roki Sasaki was the center of attention at Camelback Ranch during the team’s latest round of live batting practice.
