Dodgers' Ohtani injured in World Series win

SPORTS 27.10.2024

Los Angeles superstar Shohei Ohtani suffered an apparent shoulder injury in the Dodgers' 4-2 victory over the New York Yankees in game two of the World Series on Saturday, departing the field holding his left arm.

Text size:

Ohtani was thrown out attempting to steal second base to end the bottom of the seventh inning.

He appeared to jar his left shoulder as he stretched to slide and stayed on the ground in pain, signalling for help from the team.

Broadcaster Fox reported he injured his shoulder, but there was no immediate word from the Dodgers on the exact nature or severity of the injury.

He walked off the field holding his left arm, elbow bent, near his body with a trainer in attendance.

While the Dodgers took a commanding 2-0 lead in Major League Baseball's best-of-seven championship series, the injury to Ohtani shocked the crowd at Dodger Stadium.

A two-time American League Most Valuable Player with the Los Angeles Angels before joining the Dodgers this season, Ohtani is expected to claim the National League MVP award this year after becoming the first player to hit 50 home runs and steal 50 bases in a season.
