Sometimes, things get lost in translation when Shohei Ohtani speaks with the media.

That was not the case on Wednesday night.

On the latest episode of the Dodgers Post podcast, California Post baseball writers Dylan Hernandez and Jack Harris break down Ohtani’s latest start: A one-run, no-hit, six-inning gem … and why the two-way star was nonetheless dissatisfied with the way he pitched in the victory.

The pair also discuss the Dodgers’ recent injuries to Kiké Hernández and Teoscar Hernández, what they mean to the club short-term, and whether it’s any cause for alarm for the team with the oldest lineup in the majors.

Later, they detail the freak encounter between top prospect Kendall George and a bat dog in double-A Tulsa that led to George suffering a potentially serious injury.

And, as always, they test each other with some Dodgers trivia and make predictions for this weekend’s upcoming series with the Philadelphia Phillies.

Dylan also has another story about Yasiel Puig.

All that and more, on the latest episode of Dodgers Post.
