Following Game 6, manager Dave Roberts said that “everyone will be available” to pitch on Saturday night, with the starter still to be determined. There are reports it will be Shohei Ohtani, whom Roberts acknowledged as “a possibility” to be the first man up.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts will consider using Shohei Ohtani as an opener or even as an outfielder in Game 7 if Los Angeles forces the World Series against Toronto to the limit. The two-way star threw 93 pitches in Wednesday's 6-2 loss in Game 4 and could be available as a reliever this weekend in Toronto.
That would be Ruth, obviously. He played for 22 seasons with a career WAR of 182.6, the highest all-time. Ohtani’s career WAR is 62.2 through eight seasons. But he’s still only 31. What made Ruth unique was his ability to outshine two and even three generations of players. No one came close over those 22 years.
