Ohtani Exits Dodgers Game with Left Knee Inflammation, Dodgers Await Update

Shohei Ohtani left the Dodgers’ game vs. the Pirates in the seventh inning with left knee inflammation after going 2-for-2 with a home run and four plate appearances; the cause/timing aren’t disclosed. Earlier, Dodgers pitcher Justin Wrobleski left in the fifth with a right hamstring contusion. Manager Dave Roberts will provide an update, and the team hopes the removal was precautionary as Ohtani continues to contribute heavily at the plate and on the mound; the Dodgers head to Chicago for a White Sox series.
