MLB superstar Shohei Othani to pitch in Cincinnati on Wednesday

(CINCINNATI) – The Reds are hoping to avoid being swept for the first time this year on Wednesday night.

They will face MLB superstar Shohei Othani who will be making his seventh start of the season at Great American Ball Park.

Othani is a three-time MVP who is one of the most unique players in MLB history, as he is a dominant player both as a pitcher and a batter.  

He returned to the mound for the Los Angeles in June and the Dodgers are hoping he makes his longest appearance of the year by going at least 4 innings tonight.
