"Personally, it's my first time being able to experience being at this spot in the standings and being able to play against other division rivals who are trying to take the spot as well," Ohtani said. "So personally yes, it's very exciting."
"There were seasons where we played well as a team, but there were also seasons where I really didn't play at all. If I did, in those situations maybe the results would've been different," Ohtani reflected on his injury struggles with the Angels.
Ohtani has been largely healthy during his first season with the Dodgers, playing in all but three of the team's 140 games thus far. He plans to return to the mound next year after recovering from elbow surgery.
