Ohtani will start at designated hitter and bat leadoff Thursday in Game 4 of the NLCS against the Brewers.
Analysis:The struggling Ohtani was moved down to the No. 6 spot in the lineup for Game 3 as he battles through nagging injuries. He did reach base three times Wednesday and had a couple hard-hit balls, though Ohtani is still looking for his first extra-base hit and RBI this postseason.
