TOKYO — Shohei Ohtani hit a solo homer in his return to the Tokyo Dome, Roki Sasaki threw three eventful innings in his big-league debut and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Chicago Cubs 6-3 to sweep the two-game series in Japan. Kiké Hernández hit a two-run homer and Tommy Edman added a solo shot. Ohtani's homer in the fifth barely cleared the right-center fence and the call was reviewed by umpires before being confirmed, giving the Dodgers a 6-2 lead. Sasaki gave up one run and one hit while striking out three, but also walked five batters, including a free pass that forced in a run.
