Los Angeles Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani will bat sixth in the lineup for Wednesday night's National League Championship Series Game 3 against the Milwaukee Brewers.
The decision to move the two-way star down the order comes after a difficult stretch for Ohtani, who is currently hitting just .150 during this postseason.
Despite the slump, the team remains confident in his abilities, with sources indicating that everyone is "all on board" with the current approach as the series continues.
Game 3 serves as a critical matchup between the Dodgers and the Brewers, with the lineup adjustment aimed at optimizing the team's offensive production in the high-stakes contest.
