The final result paled in comparison to the night’s first swing. Shohei Ohtani’s ailing knee, it turns out, is still feeling plenty alright. Ohtani didn’t make his scheduled pitching start on Friday in the Dodgers’ 9-3 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks, getting scratched from the mound before the game with what the team described as “continued irritation in his left knee.” Nevertheless, that didn’t stop the two-way star from serving as the club’s designated hitter –– or, three pitches into his first at-bat, taking All-Star left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez deep the other way for a resounding, and reassuring, leadoff home run.…
