Ohtani (elbow) took batting practice on the field Thursday, Fabian Ardaya of The is reports.
This is an encouraging step for Ohtani, who had been limited to hitting in the cage prior to Thursday's session. The 24-year-old will continue to ramp things up over the next month as he looks to return at some point in May.
