Dodgers make huge Shohei Ohtani switch before Game 3 of NLDS
· Yahoo Sports
Designated hitter Shohei Ohtani is batting fifth for the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 3 of the National League Division Series against the Atlanta Braves.
Manager Dave Roberts made several notable changes to his lineup, including removing Max Muncy and Tommy Edman against left-handed pitcher Chris Sale, with the series tied 1-1.

No change is bigger than the demotion of Ohtani, who had exclusively batted first or second for the Dodgers. The two-time defending National League MVP has been in a slump ever since he returned from an injured list stint in September.
