Japan’s shocking World Baseball Classic exit sends Shohei Ohtani and Yoshinobu Yamamoto racing back to Dodgers camp, flipping the script for Los Angeles just 10 days before Opening Day.
Will this early return fuel a championship run with renewed motivation? Harry Ruiz and Travis Rodgers break down the tournament’s biggest upsets, highlight Team Japan’s rare stumble, and dissect what Ohtani and Yamamoto’s stellar tournament form means for the Dodgers’ title hopes.
Controversy erupts as Team USA survives a wild, contentious WBC semifinal, with Dodgers catcher Will Smith at the heart of a debated strike three call. The hosts debate the urgent need for ABS technology, unpack the impact of clutch performances from stars like Ronald Acuña, and react to the Dodgers’ historic Uniqlo sponsorship deal—ensuring Dodger Stadium remains iconic while boosting the team’s financial firepower. All that and more on today’s episode of Locked On Dodgers!
