Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani partially dislocated his left shoulder during the seventh inning of Saturday's Game 2 of the World Series against the New York Yankees when he tried to steal second base.
Ohtani's status for Monday's Game 3 in New York is unclear. Los Angeles manager Dave Roberts said Ohtani 鈥渉ad a little left shoulder subluxation鈥 and would get image testing either Saturday night or Sunday.
Ohtani clutched his left forearm after being tagged by shortstop Anthony Volpe for the final out in the inning on a feetfirst slide. He laid near the bag for a couple minutes before being tended to by trainers and leaving the field.
鈥淲e鈥檒l know more in the next couple days,鈥 Roberts said. 鈥淭he strength was great. The range of motion good. So we鈥檙e encouraged. But obviously I can鈥檛 speculate because we don鈥檛 get the scans yet. So once we get the scans, we鈥檒l know more. Again, with the strength, the range of motion good, that鈥檚 certainly a positive.鈥
The Dodgers held on for a 4-2 victory and lead the Series 2-0.
The Japanese slugger 鈥 and presumptive National League MVP 鈥 was 0 for 3 with a walk in the game. He is 1 for 8 in the first two games of the Fall Classic and is batting .260 with three home runs and 10 RBIs in his first postseason in the majors.
鈥淭hat was tough. You never like seeing the best player in the game get injured like that,鈥 Yankees superstar Aaron Judge said. 鈥淭rying to steal a base like that there, and something like that happens. But hopefully it鈥檚 all good news. We鈥檒l see what happens.鈥
Ohtani had been one of the few players on the Dodgers roster who got through the season without a major injury. The pitching staff has been beset by injuries, with nearly every member of the starting rotation spending time on the injured list.
Among the position players, Mookie Betts was out for nearly two months due to a broken left hand, and Max Muncy was out nearly half the season due to a right oblique strain. Freddie Freeman is playing in the postseason with a badly sprained right ankle.
Betts is optimistic about the Dodgers persevering if Ohtani is sidelined, especially after the team overcame its injuries while earning the most wins in the majors during the regular season and reaching the World Series for the fourth time in eight seasons.
鈥淲e've got a great group of guys in here and I believe we can take care of business for sure. I believe in us all,鈥 Betts said.
Most of Ohtani's injuries since coming to the majors in 2018 have been pitching-related, including major operations on his right elbow in 2018 and last year. The two-way phenomenon has not pitched this year but became the first player in major league history with at least 50 homers and 50 stolen bases in a season.
In September 2019, he had surgery on his left kneecap due to a rare condition. The procedure was on his bipartite patella, or a two-part kneecap that didn鈥檛 fuse together at birth.
Ohtani missed the 2017 World Baseball Classic after having ankle surgery because of an injury he suffered during the 2016 Japan Series.
鈥淲hen you have a group like this, they picked me up when I have been down. We鈥檒l try to do the same for him,鈥 Freeman said.
