Rather than revel in the victory Friday night, Ohtani said in an on-field postgame interview with Apple TV that he was already looking ahead to his next day’s assignment.

Jostling through folding tables, water coolers, television stands and a postgame news conference podium, he resumed his starting pitcher routine, as he would for any start, moving inside the weight room to stretch his right arm with resistance bands.

He filled all sorts of roles on the New York Mets’ radio broadcasts — pregame and postgame shows, clubhouse interviews and eventually play-by-play — before the Angels hired him.

Roberts said postgame that Sasaki’s been shut down for the foreseeable future as the team treats his right-shoulder impingement.
