Sohei Ohtani managed to play catch from 60 feet Friday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic Los Angeles reports. After being cleared to begin a throwing program Thursday, Ohtani successfully threw for the first time since suffering a right elbow injury. (Fabian Ardaya on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

The good news for fantasy owners is that Manager Mike Scioscia stated Ohtani will likely throw every other day moving forward, and he expects Ohtani to take the hill before the season's end barring any setbacks, per Ardaya.
