Yoshinobu Yamamoto successful Dodgers debut

Pitch tipping concerns addressed by Dodgers

Yamamoto had a successful Cactus League debut, facing the minimum over two innings and striking out three.

Despite concerns of pitch tipping due to visible grip on broadcast, the Dodgers are not overly worried and Yamamoto is ready to make adjustments if needed.

Yamamoto's grips were visible on the center field camera during his game, potentially allowing viewers to predict his pitches.

Pitching coach Prior emphasizes the importance of identifying and addressing pitch-tipping behaviors to prevent opposing hitters from gaining an advantage.
