The Dodger's broadcast recently mentioned some of Ohtani's earlier issues with RISP this season was due to him trying too hard given his entire MLB career has been with a club where that might be his only chance to win the game. He worked to become more relax and learned to pass the baton when it was warranted and the results speak for themselves.
I wonder if we'll see a similar change in his pitching where he's not constantly in a situation where he might be the only offense for the game when he's on the bump. Less stress makes for a happier and higher performing Shohei?
