Dodgers' Ohtani Set for Return Wednesday After IL Stint; Roberts Says He's 'Considerably' Better
Ohtani returned after a minimum stay on the injured list, and Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said he has five games to regain timing before the postseason.
- On Wednesday, Los Angeles Dodgers designated hitter Shohei Ohtani returned from the 15-day injured list, batting second in a 5-1 loss to the San Diego Padres at Dodger Stadium.
- Dodgers manager Dave Roberts placed Ohtani on the injured list September 8 due to right biceps inflammation and lingering left-knee soreness, sidelining the star for two weeks.
- Recording a single and a walk, Ohtani made his return, while the team optioned rookie Josue De Paula to Triple-A to clear a roster spot for activation.
- The Dodgers' 5-1 defeat prevented them from clinching a first-round bye, though the franchise remains focused on postseason preparation with Ohtani back in the active lineup.
- Five regular-season games remain for the Dodgers to maximize Ohtani's at-bats and restore his rhythm before the National League Division Series begins in October.
