Former Yankees pitcher gets unexpected spotlight in Ohtani–Padres flare-up originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Former New York Yankees reliever Lou Trivino hadn’t made headlines in a while as he battled through injuries and comeback attempts. Suddenly, however, he's at the center of MLB’s most talked-about dustups.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts was blunt when asked if he thought a Padres pitcher intentionally hit Shohei Ohtani on Monday night.

Shohei Ohtani allowed an early run in his pitching debut for the Los Angeles Dodgers, but quickly made up for it with two clutch hits and a pair of RBIs in a 6-3 victory over the San Diego Padres.
