Shohei Ohtani Gets Closure But Los Angeles Dodgers Can't Get Hits with Runners in Scoring Position

On the field, the Los Angeles Dodgers put up a stinker on Tuesday, going 0-for-12 with runners in scoring position to drop the series opener to the Pirates, 1-0. Off the field, LA and Shohei Ohtani got closure on the Ippei Mizuhara scandal, as Ippei pleaded guilty and MLB officially closed their investigation of the issue. We'll dig into the Ippei mess for a few minutes, then we'll talk about the Dodgers' struggles with runners in scoring position, Tyler Glasnow's terrible run support lately, and Ohtani's recent struggles.
