When it comes to the New York Yankees in 2025, few players have drawn as much ire as Anthony Volpe.

There’s no two ways about it: the Los Angeles Dodgers have had almost nothing going their way in their first two games at Petco Park against the San Diego Padres. Keyword: Almost.

To say Shohei Ohtani’s night against the Colorado Rockies didn’t go as planned would be an understatement for the Los Angeles Dodgers’ two-way star.
