Ohtani (finger) will bat second as the designated hitter Tuesday against the Dodgers.

Ohtani left his Monday start on the mound with a blister, but the fact that he's able to hit just one day later is seemingly a good sign. Pitching presumably places more stress on the blistered finger than hitting does, so he'll still have to get through a bullpen session this week if he's to make his scheduled pitching debut against the White Sox on Sunday.
