I honestly didn’t think about this when the pitch clock rules and the violations that came along with them were implemented: There was a chance a two-way player like the awe-inspiring Shohei Ohtani could get a pitch clock violation in two ways.
Ohtani at the plate could take too long to get set and have a strike called on him. Ohtani on the mound could take too long to deliver and have a ball called on the batter.
