The baseball world has been waiting to see the Los Angeles Dodgers’ newest international phenom, Roki Sasaki, as he prepares to make his spring training debut.

The 23-year-old has thrown bullpen sessions and simulated games this spring, but Tuesday night will be the first real look at what the right-hander can do with MLB-level talent and plenty of people watching.

While recent word from Dodgers camp say Sasaki may not start the team’s second game in Japan in the Tokyo Series, he’ll get an opportunity to potentially secure that spot Tuesday night as he takes the mound against the Cincinnati Reds.

The plan, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said last week, is for Sasaki to pitch about three or four innings.

Fans are also expected to see Opening Day starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto pitch for about four innings tonight, as well, with Sasaki coming on in relief.

Fans can watch the game on SportsNet LA and MLB Network to see the Sasaki’s debut. First pitch is scheduled for 5:05 p.m. PT/8:05 p.m. ET.
