Orioles @ Dodgers – June 20, 2026: Shohei Ohtani returns to the lineup, Yoshinobu Yamamoto looks for an encore

After just a day away for the birth of his second child, Shohei Ohtani is back in the lineup already. Meanwhile, Yoshinobu Yamamoto almost threw a perfecto last time out, so he has a hell of a job to try and upstage that.

In injury news, Blake Treinen hurt his right elbow will be headed to the IL. Chayce McDermott is up.

The Dodgers recalled RHP Chayce McDermott and placed RHP Blake Treinen on the injured list with right elbow inflammation.

In terms of peripherals, Jonathan Hernandez and Treinen were the two worst in the pen. With guys like Brock Stewart and Evan Phillips soon to return, this makes the decision easier.
